full-time study
Total academic commitment
Full-time study is enrollment in an educational program at the standard or maximum course load, typically four or five classes per term at a university.
The designation matters for financial aid eligibility, visa requirements, and health insurance: She needs to maintain full-time study to keep her scholarship.
The threshold varies by institution but usually means twelve or more credit hours per semester.
