For statistical, billing, and veteran-certification purposes, a full-time student is defined as one who is taking at least 9 credits per semester, depending on departmental requirements. A part-time student is one taking fewer than 9 credits per semester. All courses, including those taken not-for-credit, are counted in computing credits taken. Under some circumstances, students taking part-time credit loads may apply for consideration as full-time; this option must be discussed and approved by the individual Graduate Director or Adviser.
