Am I right in thinking that "full time enrollment" is a minimum of 12 credit hours per "semester" (4 months), so 2 classes (3-credits each) in one UMPI 8-week term is considered full-time?
I'm thinking it might be better for me to do classes directly through UMPI and not Study.com because I qualify for the full Pell grant...
Yes, Full Time for UMPI is 12 semester hours in a full 16 week semester term. You can register for 6 hours in each 8 week session to receive the full time rate for Pell Grant, but you have to actually attend BOTH sessions to receive the full award. If you take 12 sem hours in only one session and skip the second session, then you are still considered "Full Time" but you will only receive half of the semester award.
