How many credit hrs are you scheduled? The 22 hrs you mentioned; are they credit hrs or just number of hrs you attended school? To be considered full time credit hrs must be above a certain number; generally 12 (typically each class is three credit hrs and four classes at 3 credit hours is a total of 12 credit hrs for the semester or term depending if your school run on semesters or quadmesters.) You also mentioned certificate. Is this certificate going towards a college degree? In some cases, earning a certificate is not allowable as being an enrolled higher education student to be concsidered a full time college student on your taxes.
