Meeting with your Advisor
You will need to meet with your advisor to discuss your upcoming semester registration.  Your advisor will need to end your Registration Advising Hold - UG in Banner before you will be able to go into Banner and enter your classes.. If your advisor is not available, you may try to schedule an appointment with the department chair for your major or reach out to the Constantin Dean’s Office in Braniff.

Early registration clearance
Office of Finance (Business Office) clearance is required for early registration. Please check for any holds from other offices that may prevent registration. These holds could be from Financial Aid, Library, Student Life, and Registrar. 

What if there is a hold on my account?
A Hold can be put on a student’s account by various departments for different reasons. Some of the most common causes of a hold being placed on a student’s account are:

• Registration Advising Hold - UG
• Office of Finance (Business Office) Hold
• Registrar Office Hold
• Title IX Training Hold
• Medical Records Missing Hold
• Student Life Hold
