Eligibility for Financial Aid

Students must be accepted into a degree or certificate program and have a complete admissions status prior to receiving aid. Students must meet satisfactory progress standards, which are explained later in the financial aid section. Students must have eligibility for federal financial aid as determined by the federal processor on the SAR (Student Aid Report). 

Financial aid will be awarded to students based on their enrollment status. Enrollment status is based on the number of hours that a student takes each semester. The enrollment status requirements are as follows:

Full-time (12 Hours or more)
3/4 Time ( 9-11 Hours)
Half-time (6-8 Hours)
Less Than Halftime (1-5 Hours)
