<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I need help! My VP for Academics asked me yesterday the minimum number of hours required in a certificate program for it to be eligible for federal aid. 16 hours popped into my mind but someone in her office
thought it was 18. I know we looked all of that up one year when we had to change the only certificate program we have (child development) to be elig for aid. I have looked through chapter two of the handbook but I can't find what I'm looking for.<o:p></o:p></p>
