All students with fewer than 45 credits will have a registration hold. This hold will be lifted by your academic or departmental advisor after your meeting for academic planning each quarter. Make sure to meet with your academic or departmental advisor in plenty of time to register during your priority registration time.

Viewing Holds Expand

You can view any holds on your account in EagleNET.
