The load status used for financial aid purposes. Financial aid load status always includes the course section registrations that are used in calculating the academic load status. It will also include registrations in any course sections where an Other Unit Value is defined for Financial Aid Load on the course section. This type of setup is established for placeholder registrations such as Dissertation Status or Study Abroad, where the student could be considered full time for financial aid purposes even if they are not earning academic credit sufficient to be considered full time for that academic unit and academic level.

The Financial Aid Load Status can be seen on the Student’s Financial Aid tab, by clicking on Attendance Plan and then on the Load Status tab. This is the load status that is reported to the National Student Clearinghouse.
