<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">SWOSU is preparing to implement Degree Audit, and the Registrar has inquired about students' enrollment during their final semester. Specifically, she was informed that students who only require 3 credit hours in their final term are being
permitted to enroll full-time and receive financial aid for courses not required for their degree. I have not been able to find any official guidance supporting this practice. If your institution allows this during the final semester, could you please share
any relevant policies or documentation.<o:p></o:p></p>
