Account Holds
Holds can be placed on your account by various departments on campus and may impact your registration. A registration hold is any restriction that prevents registration.
Holds are released only after completing the advisement appointment. Failure to follow the advising process may result in the inability to register at the assigned time and date.
Review the "Holds" in your Student Center SIS app within the One.IU.edu system to make sure you are clear of any holds. If hold(s) exist, follow up with the stated department to begin the process of getting the hold removed.
For more information, please visit the Office of Student Accounts.
