What is a Hold?

Holds may prevent you from course registration; requesting official 捆绑SM社区 transcripts; requesting readmission to the university; receiving your diploma (if you have graduated); receiving funding; and other services.

Typically, holds are added to your record if you owe money to the university, or have not provided 捆绑SM社区 with copies of required documents supporting your admission, your immigration status, or other important issues.

Please note:

• "Warnings" are not holds and do not restrict any functions in Minerva, however, these warnings will normally become Holds if the matter remains unresolved.
• Some items listed are informational, for example an AC hold confirms to a Canadian student how many terms they are eligible for the Canada Award.
• If your record displays as 鈥渋nactive鈥� (due to unsatisfactory standing, withdrawal, etc.) you will not be able to register. Students with an inactive status wishing to register for courses should follow the steps for readmission.
