Registration HOLD for CI

<p>Do any other Freshman still have a CI hold on their account from the Registrar? I assume they will remove this soon - 1st session of registration is Thurs.</p>

<p>Please respond - hopefully my "S"'s hold is not an error.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>CJ</p>

<p>They will keep you on hold until 7 am the day of your registration . I found myself during the freshman 1 semester registration at 6 am staring at all the closed courses so I wouldn’t waste time with the ones closed. CJ, prepare ahead of time your course selection with all the back ups you can handle, so you got choices. otherwise, you will not know until the 1st week what you are taking. Good luck</p>

<p>great question CJ - i had the same one. </p>

<p>thanks multi - as always - for the good info!</p>

<p>D is making quite a list of back-ups, although she is severely limited by her scholarship requirements - 2 courses which take up valuable time slots in her scheudle… SO many courses she can’t take because they conflict with the schol req.</p>

<p>does anyone know if the MPN and the entrance counseling requirements need to show up on the log-in page as being fulfilled in order to register?
i guess my real qeustion is - besides the standard release-it-on-the-morning-of freshman hold, what other holds might there be and how would we know about them before thursday?</p>

<p>1sttimemom, any holds that she has should be posted on her MyGWU page at the top if she’s logged in. Barring that, she can log into her BannerWeb account to find out. You can have her go to “Student Records and Registration Menu” and then click on “Student Records Information Menu” and then on “View Administrative Holds”. If she’s got any, she should be able to see them there.</p>

<p>CJ - is this the message your S had on GWeb - Student Records - View Administrative Holds?</p>

<p>“New Freshmen CI Hold 03/26/10 07/13/10 Generic CI Registration Hold Registrars Office Registration”</p>

<p>i’m concerned that it saus until 7/13/10.
D is supposed to register on thursday.</p>

<p>I just found this: [COLONIAL</a> CENTRAL](<a href=“http://colonialcentral.gwu.edu/holdsnotif/]COLONIAL”>http://colonialcentral.gwu.edu/holdsnotif/) </p>

<p>"Before you register for classes, it is important to see if you have any holds. Holds may be placed on your registration for various reasons including academic requirements, incomplete immunization records, outstanding student account balances, and more. Since holds can prevent students from registering, adding and dropping courses, receiving transcripts, or graduating, it’s important that students are aware of their current holds.</p>

<p>To check whether you will be eligible to register, you may conveniently view registration hold alerts and receive other important University business notifications related to housing selection, financial aid awards, student accounts and other personalized information through the MyGW Portal. This on-line feature offers you easier registration as well as a way to conduct other personalized University business.</p>

<p>To view your holds:</p>

<ol>
<li><pre><code>Sign into the MyGW Portal.

<li><pre><code>View up-to-date information in the “My Action Items” section.
</code></pre></li>
<li><p>To view personalized hold information, simply click on the action item relating to registration holds. </p></li>
</ol>

<p>Note: “My Action Items” will only appear if you have logged-in and have University business to resolve, like holds. </p>

<p>Once the hold is resolved, you must log back into MyGW and “My Action Items” will confirm the current status of your account. Registration hold information is updated several times each hour. Visit the “My Action Items” section of the MyGW Portal at [MyGW</a> - The George Washington University Web Portal](<a href=“http://my.gwu.edu%5DMyGW”>http://my.gwu.edu) to see your hold status today! </p>

<p>We recommend that you login to the MyGW Portal to determine if you need to resolve any issues before your registration date."</p>

<p>i’m not sseeing “My Action Items” on that website, so i’m supposed to assume that there are no holds…</p>

<p>… and yet, there is a general freshman hold on the account… not leading me to have confidence in the site giving the directions listed above.</p>

<p>1sttimemom - Just called the registrar - the "CI Hold: will remain onm all freshman accounts until their actual registration date/time.</p>

<p>I hope they’re on time and we don’t have to be calling the registrar on Thursday at 2pm!!!</p>
