Late Registration

Students Registering During Late Registration Before Drop/Add Period:

Students who have their first registration activity during the late registration period (typically during the week preceding classes), will not have an E-bill statement placed online for them. Instead, they will need to look at their On Demand/Real Time Statement or current activity in E-bill to view their charges and pending financial aid. These students will need to make sure 100% of their current charges are paid after financial aid has applied by the business day before classes begin to avoid having their classes dropped, or enroll in a payment plan and make the first required installment to hold their classes.

Students Registering After Late Registration During Drop/Add Period:

Students who have no registration activity by the end of late registration will have a Student Financial Services hold placed on their account and will need to have sufficient financial aid and/or pay 100% of the current semester charges (after financial aid) to have the hold lifted prior to registration, or enroll in a payment plan and make the first required installment to hold their classes.

Students Registering For Additional Credits After Drop/Add Is Completed:

Students who wish to add additional credits must seek approval from the instructor and/or Dean's Office and need to have sufficient financial aid or payment of the course charge to have the credits added.

Students Registering After Drop/Add Is Completed:

If a student is not registered by the deadlines below for the semester, the Student Financial Services registration hold will not be lifted except in cases of a successful approval by the Dean's Office. Students initiate the request with their Dean's Office to enroll for the term and to receive permission for each class they wish to take. The student must satisfy one of the following requirements with Student Financial Services: have sufficient financial aid to cover the full cost of the courses to be added; submit out of pocket payment in full; or enroll in a payment plan and submit necessary payment. Additionally, any past due balances must be paid in full. Once the payment requirements have been satisfied, the Dean's Office will complete the request for the classes to be added.
