What if students don register as full-time after they receive financial aid?
• A. Some financial aid programs require full-time attendance. These include TAP, full Federal Pell Grant funding, and at Long Island University, campus-based financial aid (Federal SEOG, Federal Perkins Loans, HPL Loans, Federal Work Study/America Reads, and SDS Awards). If registration falls below full-time status (12 credits per term), then awards may be reduced or canceled. TAP and campus-based financial aid are canceled, and Federal Pell Grants are reduced to reflect 3/4 time, 1/2 time, or less than 1/2 time status. Loan eligibility can also be reduced or canceled if registration falls below full-time status.
