Account Holds
Why do I have a hold on my account?
Holds are placed on your account for academic or financial reasons, and generally require action from you. If action is not taken, consequences can occur such as not being able to register for classes or request official transcripts.
You will usually be notified of an existing or impending hold by the office authorizing the hold. This information is also displayed on your SIS account on the right side of page. Click details listed under Holds. Log in to SIS.
