Confirmation from school required for Student status

 

For those applying under the Student category, NAMA requires proof of your status as a "Full Time" student from the school you are attending.

 NAMA interprets "Full Time" a little differently than state universities and student loan programs. You will qualify as a full time student if you are attending a school that considers you as a full time student in good standing in one of their certificate or degree programs.

 Examples are:

1.      Traditional universities and colleges where you are attending 15 credit hours per semester (term).

2.      Schools where you are enrolled in a one weekend per month program for one year or more.

3.      Distance learning programs where the curriculum, hours and certification is equivalent to that school’s conventional programs.

·         (There is a time limit to the Student category. A person may be considered for Student status in 1. and 2. above for a maximum of 3 years and for 3. above for a maximum of 1 year)

 Examples that do NOT qualify are weekend seminars, summer intensives, etc.

 NAMA requires letter, fax or email from the school indicating your status, program enrolled in and whether a degree or certificate is issued upon successful completion. Email can go to info@ayurveda-nama.org or fax to 505-294-7572.
