 (ii) there are Commonwealth supported students (within the meaning of that Act) enrolled in the course;
  the full‑time student load for the course; or
 (b) if the course is not such a course and the institution defines an amount of full‑time study that a full‑time student should typically undertake in respect of the course—the amount so defined; or
 (c) otherwise—an amount of full‑time study equivalent to the average amount of full‑time study that a person would have to undertake for the duration of the course in order to complete the course in the minimum amount of time needed to complete it.
