*Note that the student still completed 14 hours after withdrawing from ACCT 104. Therefore, the student would still qualify for full-time student status. If this student had completed less than 12 hours because of the withdrawal from ACCT 104, then the student would have no longer qualified for full-time student status which could have an effect on the student’s financial aid entitlements.
