Holds

Why do I have a hold on my account?

Holds are placed on student accounts for academic or financial reasons and generally require action from the student. If action is not taken consequences, such as not being able to register for classes or request official transcripts can occur.

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 (right side of page click details listed under Holds).

What does my hold mean?

Check the below chart to see what your hold prevents and how to resolve it. If your hold is not listed here call us at (920) 465-2111 and we can explain what your hold means.
