No glitch. You enter your full time student status in the personal info section.  It has to be entered again in the education section, where  You'll be given a choice of:

  • Full time
  • Half time or more
  • Less than half time

Go through the entire education interview until you reach a screen titled "Your Education Expenses Summary".  Click edit next to the student's name. That should take you to a screen “Here’s your Education Summary”. Click edit next to “Education Information”.
