Holds

If there is a hold on a record, a student may not register, or in many cases, obtain transcripts until that hold is cleared with the office imposing the hold. A hold may be imposed for financial indebtedness to the University (e.g., for unpaid tuition or fees, unpaid library fines, or delinquent health service payments) or for disciplinary or scholastic reasons. a student will usually be notified of an existing or impending hold by the department or office authorizing the hold including the name of the department or office where it may be cleared.

To remove a hold from a record, a student must first pay the debt owed, correct the scholastic deficiency, or be cleared by the conduct code coordinator. For most debts, they will receive a billing statement and be required to submit it with payment at the Cashier's office; a student may present the receipted billing statement to the department or office that authorized the hold as evidence that the debt has been paid.

When any hold is cleared, the unit imposing the hold will electronically remove the hold from your record. Units may, on occasion, issue temporary hold releases. Temporary releases will allow a student to either receive one transcript or to register during the term in progress.

If, in order to register, a student pays a Student Accounts Receivable hold for a previous term with a personal check, and that check does not clear the bank, they will be sent a notice by Student Accounts Receivable. Their current registration may be cancelled if they fail to respond to this notice and pay their debt.
