Enrollment Status
Enrollment status is the number of units upon which your financial aid award is
based. This status is determined when your initial award is made. Your
enrollment status is verified on census day (the third Monday of the semester)
and adjustments are made to your award for the academic year depending upon the
number of units in which you are enrolled. Classes added after the enrollment
status has been established will not result in an award being revised upward.
Dropping classes may result in your award being revised downward or being
canceled.
In establishing eligibility for financial aid, enrollment status is determined
as follows:
Status Fall/Spring
Full Time 12+ units
3/4 Time 9 - 11.5 units
1/2 Time 6 - 8.5 units
Less than 1/2 Time 0.5 - 5.5 units
Consortium Agreement
Units taken concurrently at Grossmont College and Cuyamaca College may be
accepted for financial aid purposes if a student has filed a consortium
agreement. A student must apply for financial aid and file a consortium
agreement at the college where he/she has declared a major, and must be
enrolled in all units by census day. The courses listed on the agreement
must also be required for the student’s educational objective. Students who
drop to less than six units at the institution granting the consortium agreement
will have the consortium agreement cancelled and their aid may also be
cancelled. Consortium agreements should be submitted before the student's
census day and no later than the student’s last day of enrollment for the term
in which the consortium agreement will be applied. Consortium agreements
must be filed every fall and spring semester and are not accepted for summer
aid.
