For most purposes, a full-time student is defined as one who is
registered for 12 or more credits. Anyone who registers for 11 or fewer
credits is a part-time student. All courses, including courses of
research and regular courses undertaken "not for credit" (E and
N prefixes), are counted in measuring the student's recordable
program of work. These regulations govern tuition charges, student
fees, statistical records, residency requirements, and other issues
affected by definitions of full-time and part-time status.
