That's what I would have thought too. Forgive me, for I'm slightly clueless on the course registration process.

But my financial aid seems to be awarded on a 12 per semester assumption?

I thought it was simply a fixed cost for semester thing. My mother who isn't really familiar with the US college system (she was educated in my birth country) but got a degree at a state school here who charged by the credit hour, thought that costs were variable with courseload. Does tuition not increase with higher amount of credits / semester, but go down if you take less?
