Enrollment Requirements

Instructors may drop or withdraw you from a class if you’re not attending or turning in work. For F-1 and J-1 students, this can be a serious issue because falling below the required number of credits can affect your visa status. Check your course schedule and Canvas regularly, communicate with your professor if you are struggling or need to miss class, and respond quickly to any attendance or academic concerns. Contact ISS immediately if you are dropped or withdrawn from a course, and always speak with ISS before dropping or withdrawing from one yourself. 

If you are dropping a class and will still be enrolled in at least 12 credit hours, fill out the Lift International Hold request in myHilltop. ISS will temporarily lift the hold preventing changes to your class schedule to allow you to drop the class. 

 Full-time undergraduate students (12–18 credit hours) pay a flat tuition rate plus a comprehensive fee. If you're part-time (less than 12 credit hours) or taking summer classes, you’ll be charged per credit hour plus the fee. Optional costs—like parking permits, health insurance, housing, or meal plans—may apply to all students. Learn more about fees. 

You may take courses at another school that will count towards your full-time enrollment requirement at St. Edward’s. However, you must:

• Must take at least half of required hours with St. Edward’s

• Maintain at least one in-person or hybrid (not online) course at St. Edward’s

• Consult with your success coach to make sure any courses you take at another school will transfer to St. Edward’s and count towards your degree program

• Report your concurrent enrollment by contacting ISS to complete the Concurrent Enrollment Verification form
