REGISTRATION FULL TIME ENROLLMENT ONLINE COURSES
Students are able to count only 1 online course toward full-time enrollment. The rest of the courses must be face to face instruction. Hybrid classes that are 50-99% online count as an online course.
MAINTAINING STATUS QUIZ
Summer is generally considered a vacation term. Students can take as many or as few classes as they like (including not enrolling during summer). Online or face to face restrictions also do not apply. However, if it is the first or last semester of enrollment, all full time requirements apply.
Each Fall and Spring Semester, international students must take a maintaining status quiz. A registration hold is put on their account after add/drop and removed only once they complete the quiz with a 90% or higher score. westga.edu/isap/beginningthesemester
