    This form is for graduate students at Fordham University who may be registered for fewer credits than required to qualify as a half-time, three-quarter time, or full-time student. The purpose is to request certification of student status for financial aid, benefits, or other programs. The student fills out sections A, B, and C to indicate the specific program, number of credits enrolled in, and academic activities. The department chair or program director then reviews the student's academic workload in section D and determines an appropriate credit equivalency based on time spent in classes, research, teaching duties, or other degree-required activities.

    approximately 15 weeks for one semester or trimester hour of credit, or 10 to 12 weeks for one quarter hour of credit, or at

    established by the institution including laboratory work, internships, practica, studio work, and other academic work leading
