Enrollment

The number of credits you take will affect your aid:

• Loans require a minimum enrollment level of 6 credits per semester.
• In addition, educational loans (Federal Stafford Student Loans) enter repayment after a six month grace period that begins when you drop below half-time enrollment.
• Some programs will permit less-than-half-time enrollment.  If you enroll less than half-time, you may have a greatly reduced need or no calculated need. 
• Scholarship donors (private or GSC) will establish enrollment requirements for scholarships.
• Recipients of Georgia State Scholarships (exclusive of HOPE) should check with the Georgia Student Finance Commission about minimum enrollment requirements.
