Coastal Carolina University credits all or a portion of tuition charges for adjustments to a student's class schedule made after the start of classes depending on certain criteria. If the schedule change reduces a student's credit hours below full-time to part-time levels, or the credit hours are reduced from above 18 hours to below 18 hours, a credit may be appropriate.
