Dual Enrollment
Students who have been approved to take classes at another institution while attending UCF might have those hours counted toward meeting financial aid requirements for some programs at UCF. Dual enrollment will not meet eligibility criteria for institutional aid programs. Courses taken elsewhere must meet some major or general education requirements to be calculated as part of student aid eligibility. All of the following documents must be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Assistance on or before the withdrawal deadline of the term in which aid is to be disbursed:
- Advisor Certification Form with all required signatures;
- A copy of the Fee Invoice and class schedule confirming that the classes and hours enrolled match the Transient Student Form;
- A completed Consortium Agreement Form to be completed by the transient school financial aid office.
Dual enrolled students must make arrangements to pay tuition and fees at the visited school since there is no system for deferral of those tuition and fees. In addition, it is the student’s responsibility to insure that the visited school promptly provides UCF with academic transcripts, confirming that the attempted hours are completed. Transcripts or grades should also be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Assistance. This will help avoid academic progress problems. Students who expect to receive funds under any of the federal loan programs must enroll for a minimum of six undergraduate hours at UCF in UCF classes to meet eligibility requirements.
Students may not receive financial aid from two institutions at the same time. Students must decide which of the two institutions is the primary school at which they are degree seeking and apply for aid there. Any inaccuracy will result in a mandatory repayment to one of the two schools for the overpayment.
