- Enroll in an eligible program as a regular student seeking a degree or certificate;
- Enroll at least half-time to be eligible for Direct Loan program funds;

- Meet satisfactory academic progress (SAP) standards;
- Not be in default on any federal student loan nor owe money (overpayment) on a federal student grant; and
