The definition of a "full-time" regular student is: (1) traditional age students (Program type "R" for Regular) and (2) registered for a minimum of 12 semester hours in a semester. A student with a program type of "R" will be considered "full-time" as of the 15th calendar day of the semester, regardless of schedule changes, and will be charged the package rate for all credit hours between 12 and 18. Credit hours in excess of 18 will be charged on a per credit-hour basis.
When a less than "full-time" regular student increases their credit hour load during the semester to 12 or more semester hours, they will then be considered a "full-time" student and will be charged the package rate for the semester.
 
No Show
Students who do not officially drop a class within the initial 10th business day add/drop period because of non-attendance and are administratively dropped from a class, will be assessed a fee of $150 per class. For students officially dropping a class, either before the class starts or within the first two weeks of the class, there will be no charge.
 
Appeals
Appeals by those students who feel that individual circumstances warrant exceptions from the established policies should be made in writing to the Appeals Committee, Student Accounts Office.
