Before registering for classes, it's important to understand policies and procedures surrounding course registration, grade changes, and financial obligations. This guide outlines the key processes and consequences that can impact your academic progress and enrollment status.

Registration Tempering
A student who tampers or attempts to tamper with the registration records of another student, including but not limited to dropping and adding classes, will be subject to disciplinary action as defined in the Student Code of Conduct.
Unauthorized Signatures
The use of a person's signature without permission is a serious matter and the consequences can be severe. Possible consequences include:
- Being dropped from the course by the instructor, department chair, dean of the college or the university.
- Loss of tuition paid for the course.
- University disciplinary action such as probation, suspension, expulsion and correction of all course grades.
- Loss of priority for the course or courses during registration.
The above applies to all documents used by the university that may require a signature. Such documents include "Change of Student Record Form", "Schedule Adjustment Form" and "Override Authorization Form".
Prerequisite, Co-Requisites and Placement Test
Prerequisite statements indicate requirements students must have completed to enroll in a course.
Co-requisites are a group of course sections that must be taken together during the same term.
Placement test scores are also sometimes used to determine eligibility for a course. A student is responsible for ensuring that they meet the requirements for any particular course. Ignoring course requirements can have serious financial and academic consequences. If a student does not qualify for a course in which he/she enrolls, the student may be required to drop it or potentially be administratively dropped from the course.
Payment of Financial Obligations
Failure by a student to pay a financial obligation to the university or any department, division or agency thereof will result in denial of readmission, denial of transcripts, denial of registration for ensuing terms, withholding of diplomas and may result in an administrative cancellation of enrollment until the debt is paid in full. View "Registration Hold/Service Indicators" under "Eligibility to Enroll" for the corresponding semester.
Past due accounts will be subject for assignment to a professional collection agency, and collection costs may be added to the delinquent account.
