<p>ok so spring quarter i was taking 14 units, and around week 6 or 7 i decided to drop a 5 unit course so i was only taking 8 units at the time. As far as i know there isnt a problem with dropping below full time after the census date which is week 4 or 5, so i thought i was safe.
I wasn't doing so well in my other 2 classes so i decided to drop the quarter around week 8 or 9, and when i asked if i would have to pay back my fin aid they said no. I thought i was in the safe zone but now im getting mails from financing companies i've never heard of before saying that since my enrollment status has changed and repayment of loans may have to begin that they can help.</p>

<p>I'm really confused....
so in short, I dropped below full time around week 7, withdrew from the quarter around week 9, and am enrolled as a full time student for summer.
Does that mean I have to begin repaying my loans now? cuz i was half time for like 3 weeks of spring quarter?</p>

<p>I think as long as you registered for classes for fall quarter you should be fine. Call the financial aid office tomorrow and make sure, though. I had to withdraw in Fall '09, but signed up for classes for Winter '10, and everything was fine.</p>

<p>As long as you’re enrolled full time, even if its at a community college, you don’t have to pay back your loans. Make sure you’re enrolled for the fall though. If necessary call and tell the lenders that you are still a full time student.</p>
