A hold is a code placed on your record that prevents registration. Any holds you may have will be listed on your registration email.

Kinds of holds that may appear include:

  • Financial. In most cases, financial bars may be paid in cash or by check at the cashier’s office in SASB.
  • Nonfinancial. You must resolve a nonfinancial bar in person at the administrative office that imposed it.
  • Advising. Many majors require students to be advised before registering for classes. Check your Registration Appointment Email or consult the Advising and Major Codes section of the Course Schedule to see if your major department requires advising.
