I talked to the UHH Financial Aid Office. Apparently the only way for me to qualify as a half-time student is if the class I'm taking at HawCC contributes to my major. Which it doesn't

I'm taking one class at UHH and one at HawCC. In terms of employment on-campus, I'm a half-time student. But because my loans are only registered with UHH, I'm less than half-time. Since I didn't register HawCC as a campus I'm taking classes from, they don't recognize my three credits at HawCC. (And the only way that I can get my HawCC classes to count is if they count towards my major...which they don't. xD

You can make the argument that because there was no warning and didn't receive anything that, you know, the separation date would be sort of null and void because you ARE taking classes and working as a part-time student on campus. It just seems like the FAO didn't do their jobs correctly, or they aren't giving you much help in how to fix this for your education. >___>

I've thought about that. I don't know if I'll actually do it though, because I was honestly thinking about leaving school before this. This seems like the final push really.
Plus this is the same FAO that stops giving financial aid after you have so many credits even if you need it. xD Kinda defeats the purpose of "Financial Aid" I think...but for all I know, they might not make the rules. They probably don't count on students having so many credits and not graduating.
