Time status (also referred to as enrollment status) is determined by the attempted credits registered for the term. Courses with registration status as "audit" are excluded from the time status calculation. Some graduate level courses, such as dissertation, may carry full-time status regardless of the credits registered.

The School Certifying Official reports a student's time status to the VA based on credits registered per enrollment period. Enrollment period is defined as the length of time the courses takes place. The time status reported to the VA may differ from overall time status for the term. Students may contact the School Certifying Official via Tuportal:
