According to NCES, a majority of these students do not work. In 2018, about&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nces.ed.gov\/programs\/coe\/indicator\/ssa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">43% of full-time undergraduates<\/a>&nbsp;were employed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most colleges require full-time graduate students to take at least three classes, or nine credits, per semester. In fall 2019, of the 3.1 million students in graduate programs,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nces.ed.gov\/programs\/coe\/indicator\/chb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1.7 million were enrolled full time<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Considered_Part-Time_Student_in_College\"><\/span>What is Considered Part-Time Student in College?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The main difference between a part-time and full-time student is the number of credits they take each semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, part-time undergraduate students take 11 or fewer credits per semester. Part-time graduate students usually take less than nine credits. However, graduate students enrolled in their thesis or dissertation course usually do not need to meet this requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part-time students make up a large percentage of those enrolled in\u00a0colleges and universities. According to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nces.ed.gov\/fastfacts\/display.asp?id=372\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Center for Education Statistics<\/a>\u00a0(NCES), of the 19.6 million students attending these schools in fall 2019, 7.7 million were part-time students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full-Time_vs_Part-Time_Enrollment_3_Key_Differences\"><\/span>Full-Time vs. Part-Time Enrollment: 3 Key Differences<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Full-time and part-time students typically experience several key differences. For example, tuition costs, financial aid opportunities, and time commitments can all be affected by your enrollment status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Time_Commitment\"><\/span>1. Time Commitment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many full-time undergraduates take about 15\u00a0credits per semester to graduate\u00a0in four years. That amounts to around five classes per term. If you add in study time and out-of-class assignments, full-time students devote many hours each week to academics alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A part-time student typically takes anywhere from 1-3 classes a week. At this rate, it takes significantly longer to earn a degree; however, you get more time to devote to work and family obligations. Many schools also cap the length of time you can take to earn your degree, ranging from 6-10 years for a bachelor&#8217;s and 5-7 years for a master&#8217;s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Tuition_Cost\"><\/span>2. Tuition Cost<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, a part-time college student pays per credit. They may end up paying less in tuition each semester, but they&#8217;ll likely be enrolled in classes for a much longer period of time. According to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/educationdata.org\/cost-of-a-college-class-or-credit-hour#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EducationData.org<\/a>, four-year public colleges charge in-state students an average of $312 per credit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attending college part time can give students more flexibility to work and\u00a0balance other responsibilities. While this schedule can be challenging, it can help reduce their financial burden. Also, some employers will pay for all or part of an employee&#8217;s tuition costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A full-time student usually pays an annual or semester-based tuition rate, which can mean paying more money upfront. However, many schools charge a flat rate for 12-18 credits per semester. This flat rate can save students who take 13 or more credits a term a significant amount of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Financial_Aid_and_Scholarships\"><\/span>3. Financial Aid and Scholarships<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your enrollment status \u2014 full time vs. part time \u2014 can directly affect your eligibility for financial aid. Eligibility for federal financial aid requires a minimum of six credits per semester, or half-time enrollment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These programs also base their maximum eligibility on the number of credits taken. For instance, if you receive a $6,000\u00a0Pell Grant\u00a0but only enroll half time, the money you&#8217;re awarded will be reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/research.collegeboard.org\/pdf\/trends-college-pricing-student-aid-2020.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">College Board<\/a>, in 2019-20, full-time undergraduates received an average of $14,940 in financial aid, whereas\u00a0full-time graduate students\u00a0received $27,310. While more scholarships are available for full-time students,\u00a0adult learners and part-time students\u00a0can also find scholarships\u00a0based on merit or need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Part_Time_vs_Full_Time_Which_Is_Right_for_You\"><\/span>Part Time vs. Full Time: Which Is Right for You?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Full-time and part-time enrollment, each offer their own challenges and opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Challenges for full-time students include greater upfront tuition fees and less time to work or take care of other obligations. Some of the benefits include a faster path to earning your degree and more\u00a0financial aid\u00a0opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, according to NCES, enrolling full time can positively affect your chances of graduating due to higher retention rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Challenges for part-time students may include juggling the demands of school and other commitments, as well as an extended graduation timeline. A part-time student also may have to take courses on weekends or in the evenings, which can limit networking opportunities and make it harder to take advantage of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/jesusful.com\/edu\/\">student<\/a> services\u00a0and other resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the benefits include reducing the financial burden by spending less upfront for school. Also, in some cases, a student&#8217;s employer may be willing to help pay for their tuition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions_About_Enrollment_Status\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions About Enrollment Status<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Collapse All<\/li><li>Expand All<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_cheaper_to_be_a_part-time_student\"><\/span>Is it cheaper to be a part-time student?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a part-time student, you usually pay per credit for tuition. For full-time students, most schools offer an annual capped tuition fee. This means that a full-time student can take up to 18 credits and pay the same tuition as if they were taking 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the short term, a part-time student may pay less each semester. In the long run, however, it will normally cost them more to earn their degree. Some schools may also charge additional fees for each semester a student is enrolled, which can add extra expenses for part-time learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the plus side, a majority of part-time students are employed. Their wages can be used to help fund their college education and pay for living expenses. Furthermore, some employers will help cover an employee&#8217;s tuition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_work_and_be_a_full-time_student\"><\/span>Can you work and be a full-time student?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/1gyhoq479ufd3yna29x7ubjn-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Working-Learners-Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Georgetown University report<\/a>&nbsp;revealed that, in 2015, 40% of undergraduates and 76% of graduate students worked at least 30 hours a week while attending college. The report also showed that 25% of all working students were enrolled in college full time, and that 19% of working students had children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it can be done, students considering this route should take a close look at their schedule and determine just how many hours they can realistically devote to work. Due to greater flexibility, some working students choose to\u00a0earn their degrees online. In 2019, over\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nces.ed.gov\/fastfacts\/display.asp?id=80\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">7.3 million students<\/a>\u00a0enrolled in distance education programs, according to NCES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_does_graduate_school_take_for_part-time_students\"><\/span>How long does graduate school take for part-time students?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most master&#8217;s programs require 30-60 credits and take 1-2 years of full-time study to complete. Depending on your schedule and how many credits you can commit to each term, part-time enrollment can lead to a degree in 3-6 years. Most programs limit the number of years you can take to earn a master&#8217;s \u2014 normally anywhere from 5-7 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students have many options today, including attending school on the weekends and\/or in the evenings and enrolling in online programs. Some\u00a0online programs\u00a0offer a\u00a0flexible asynchronous learning format, whereas others require weekly virtual class sessions and some in-person components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_credits_is_a_full_time_student\"><\/span>How many credits is a full time student?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, undergraduates are considered full-time college students if they take at least 12 credits \u2014 about four classes \u2014 each semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full_Time_Student_Hours\"><\/span>Full Time Student Hours<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How many hours is a full time student?<\/strong> The accepted standard is 12 -20 hours per week (5 days) as a normal for a FULL TIME STUDENT but this can vary quite a bit and there is no law or standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_Hours_should_a_Full_Time_College_Student_Work\"><\/span>How many Hours should a Full Time College Student Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/1gyhoq479ufd3yna29x7ubjn-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Working-Learners-Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Georgetown University report<\/a>\u00a0revealed that, in 2015, 40% of undergraduates and 76% of graduate students worked at least 30 hours a week while attending college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ask Admissions: What is the difference between full-time and part-time?\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-VcGs7HHU1c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":7231,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1241],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.11 (Yoast SEO v20.11) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What is considered Full Time vs. Part-Time Student - Jesusful Education<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"What is considered Full Time vs. Part-Time Student.
