[Oasfaa] Summer ACG/SMART - per Fred Sellers

[Marcia Carter]

Below is the response from Fred Sellers via Kathleen Smith regarding
what constitutes full-time for Summer for the ACG/SMART grants:
 
 
Hello Marcia...I am so sorry it took this long to get an answer to a
question asked so long ago.  My understanding is there was some travel
in between the time I sent in your question and the time it got to the
right person....better late than never?  
 
Hope all is well.

Kathleen,
 
Am trying to catch up on old emails since have a bit of a break in neg
reg process and don't think anyone has responded to you.  Full-time
for
summer for ACG will be the same for students in an educational program
as it is for all title IV student aid.  Typical traditional school
calendar is that summer is 12 semester hours.  But all of this depends
on how the institution sets up its academic calendar and defines its
title IV academic year if the summer is not treated as it is
traditionally done.
 
Hope this helps.  Let me know if you want more detail.

I am betting I shd not bug you with this so if you can tell me who -
that would be great. I am at a fao meeting and I was asked a question
about what constitues full time status for summer for acg. Is it what
the school determines to be FT or a set number of hours?  
 
THANK YOU
