A gentle reminder:

aid eligibility. Exception to this rule is PhD candidates in dissertation
course. 
The 6 credit hour minimum can be in one of the following combinations:

* 6 credit hours Summer II OR
* 3 credit hours Summer I + 3 credit hours in a 10 week course OR

Students who are in other combinations, such as 2 credit hours in one summer
session + 4 credit hours in another summer session need to contact our
office at FAO.web at tamuc.edu as these combinations need to be handled
manually when disbursement begins.

Financial Aid Standards of Progress
Spring grades will be reviewed to determine if students are meeting
financial aid standards of progress.
