Re: Student loans: Real dumb question

If you are enrolled as a degree-seeking student attending at least half 
time (normally 6 credits per semester) the only difference is the total 
dollar eligibility since it is based on your cost of attendance which 
should be less than for a full-time student. Schools have different cost 
of attendance budgets based on the amount of credits and yours should be 
able to explain them for you.
