Am I sedentary or lightly active?

Hello, I'm a female, 5'6", 112.5 lbs, 18 years old. I'm looking to maintain my weight. I try to do a little bit of cardio and strength training 3 times a week, but I never do more than 45-60 minutes. I'm a student, so I spend most of the day sitting except when I walk from class to class. I'm not sure if I'm considered sedentary or lightly active, so I'm not sure how much I should be eating. Help? Thanks in advance!

    Most of the fitness calculators would put you at lightly active with 3 times a week of exercise.
