Show Office of Financial AidSkip Over Breadcrumbs and Secondary Navigation Enrollment statuses are the same for every semester: fall, spring, and summer.
Things to be aware of regarding enrollment:
Tuition and Mandatory fee rates vary, depending on the student’s enrollment status. Undergraduate students are considered to be part-time if they are enrolled for less than 12 credits. Part-time students are charged tuition on a per credit basis, as well as part-time fees. Full-time students are enrolled for 12-18 credits, and charged a flat rate for tuition and full-time fees. Undergraduate students enrolled
for more than 18 credits are charged the flat rate tuition plus per credit for each credit that exceeds 18. Graduate students are considered to be part-time if they are enrolled for less than 9 credits. Part-time students are charged tuition on a per credit basis, as well as part-time fees. Full-time students are enrolled for 9-15 credits, and charged a flat rate for tuition and full-time fees. Graduate students enrolled for more than 15 credits are
charged the flat rate tuition plus per credit for each credit that exceeds 15. How you register may affect your student account balance. It is not unusual for students to register for classes over a period of days. When that happens, their tuition and fees may be recomputed as their enrollment changes from part-time to full-time. Tuition and fee charges may be added to the student account as the student adds classes to their schedule. If that is the
case, there will be a plus sign next to the amount displayed for tuition and fees on the Account Activity tab in PittPAY. Expanding the amount displayed will provide the incremental charge details, by date, that sum to amounts associated with tuition and fees. Waitlisted classes can affect your student account balance too. Learn more. The minimum full-time semester workload is 12 credits for undergraduate students and 9 credits for graduate students. Certain forms of federal, state, and institutional financial aid require full-time status by the end of the add/drop period. Only full-time students are permitted to live on campus.

Part-time study is generally 1 to 11 credit hours. Students are advised to study independently three hours a week for each credit hour.
What does the IRS consider halfFor financial aid purposes, enrollment status for all terms is as follows: full-time is 12 or more credit hours, three-quarter time is 9-11 credit hours, half-time is 6-8 credit hours and less than half-time is 1-5 credit hours.
What does the IRS consider a fullAccording to the IRS, full-time students are children under the age of 19 or adults under the age of 24 who attend an educational program at least five months per calendar year.
How many credits is fullSince the federal government defines full-time enrollment as 12 credits per semester for financial aid purposes, students often mistake their “full-time” status with a guarantee for on-time graduation.
