Registration Holds

Each semester, students will be responsible for completing the 'Financial Agreement' before they are able to register for classes, This will show as a hold on your account. To clear this hold, please go to the SIS landing page, and in the 'Students-Important Links', you will see a link for the financial agreement. Please click on the link, enter the term, and then the resolve button for the agreement will be at the bottom of the screen.

Any pending holds on your account must be resolved before you can register for classes.
You are strongly encouraged to reconcile any holds prior to the registration add date deadline.
