Guide for Registration Holds

A hold may be placed on your student account by many different departments for many reasons, usually because you need to provide information or complete a required task. All holds, including Immunization Compliance and Past Due Balance holds, must be cleared before you can register for classes. To view any holds on your account access "Student Records" in your Pace Portal account and click "View Holds."
