• You must be admitted as a degree seeking student and your Spring 2019 FHSU enrollment must be finalized in order to receive aid for Winter Intersession 2019.
• Winter Intersession credit hours will not be included in the calculation of total spring credit hours used to determine enrollment level for consortium agreement purposes.
• Dropping/withdrawing from courses could require a repayment, specifically Pell Grant recipients. For more information, visit www.fhsu.edu/finaid/Fin-Aid-Policies/#LDAP.
• The combination of Winter Intersession 2019 and Spring 2019 credit hours will make up your Spring 2019 enrollment level for financial aid awarding purposes. It is your responsibility to notify our office if your enrollment level will be different for Spring 2019 due to your Intersession 2019 hours. Aid cannot release unless you are enrolled in the number of hours for which your aid is calculated.
