For procedures to process financial, health and conduct holds on student registration and records refer to the Procedure for Processing Holds on Student Records and Other Record Actions prepared by Systems and Procedures.
In addition to the financial, health and conduct holds on student registration and records, a student may be prevented from completing registration by an administrative officer or a college dean in accordance with the following guidelines:
1. A hold may be used to ensure compliance with Senate Policies such as 39-50 (Enrollment Time Limit), 39-80 (Completion of Enrollment), 58-50 (Readmission as a Degree Candidate) and 83-60 (Baccalaureate and Associate Degree Time Limit).
2. A hold may be used as a means to ensure direct communication with a student regarding the need to fulfill certain administrative or college requirements.
NOTE: In those cases where academic performance does not meet Senate approved college or program standards, a drop action should be taken rather than a hold action in accordance with Senate Policy 54-56. An approved college drop action under Senate Policy 54-46 will automatically prevent a student from registration as a degree candidate until such time as that student is reinstated to degree candidacy.
1. Alternative methods to communicate the problem to the student should be used prior to initiating a hold.
2. If a hold is to be issued, the Student Records Action Form (FORM N-1) will be completed in accordance with approved procedures.
3. A hold should be considered as temporary and removed as soon as the conditions for placing the hold are met.
