<p>I remember a couple of months ago I saw someone's post here and they had gotten 3750 for the Academic scholarship. My ISIS was finally updated today and it's only showing 3090. Is this because I'm only taking 12 credit hours?</p>
<p>PLEASE PLEASE help! Thank you</p>
<p>I don’t think so. I just checked my son’s bright future award and it says $3090 also. He’s registered for 15 hours.</p>
<p>Ugh 
So I guessed they have reduced it or something. Thanks for replying!</p>
<p>Well I’m taking 16 hours and I am only getting $1,545 for the fall semester ($3090 total for fall and spring). It should be $1,648 based on the FAS award amount ($103 per credit hours).</p>
<p>My guess is that these are just estimates. I’m awaiting a call back from SFA, I’ll let you know what I hear.</p>
<p>That’s what I’m hoping for as well. Others are saying that it’s just less this year. Great, let me know! Thanks :)</p>
<p>Everyone’s predicted bright futures amount is $3090 which is based on 30 credits for the year, 15 per semester. 120 credits is required for graduation. Once the drop add period ends for fall semester, ISIS will update with the credit amount based on approximately $103 per credit. Bright Futures, as well as any other loans considered financial aid will be disbursed once credit hours are verified. This is around the 3rd week of school. If you want to figure out your amount just multiply credit hours actually taken, not registered for by 103. Just because you register for 14 or 15 credits doesn’t mean you end up taking all 5 classes. Many students drop classes after the first week.</p>
<p>Thanks! Is there a way to calculate the exact tuition? It’s really difficult to know anything with only estimates. </p>
<p>Also, are both semesters of BF disbursed simultaneously? Thank you to whoever replies!</p>
<p>I get $100 per credit. I’m a biology major, and my tuition is about $3000 per semester. So, bright futures pays for almost half. I took 14 credits per semester for the first year.</p>
