Double check your Spring 2015 semester reminders

Welcome to the 2015 Spring Semester! Please take a look at the following reminders:

As you return to classes for the spring 2015 semester, please check your schedule on eServices frequently. It is possible that changes have been made to your classes, so be aware of the time and where your classes are meeting. Changes to the location of your classes can occur after classes have started, so you should continue to check your schedule during the first week of classes. Students are responsible for all deadlines and registration activity.

Drop/Add Deadline: The deadline for dropping and adding courses is Friday, January 16, 2015, at 4 p.m. No entry will be made in a student’s record if a course is dropped before this date.

Class Permissions: After the January 16th deadline, a student can no longer add courses via eServices. A department issued ‘registration permit’ will be required to add any courses and must be processed in the Records Office. The permit must be signed by the student and the instructor teaching the course. Permits can be found in departments or on the Records website under Forms.

Holds: If you have issues adding or dropping a course, it maybe because of a hold or certain restriction on the course. To see a list of common reasons along with the error message and possible solution, go to the following link: Common Registration Problems

Withdrawal Deadline: You may to continue to drop classes after January 16, but you will receive a ‘W’ on your academic record. Withdrawal deadlines vary for half term and full term sessions. Please check your student schedule in eServices for specific withdrawal deadlines for each course.

Waitlists: Waitlists for the 2015 spring semester courses will end on January 16, 2015. Waitlists are lists of students waiting to get registered for a course that is full. If you are on a waitlist for a course, make sure to watch for a notification sent to your mnstate.edu email account. The student will have 24 hours after being notified to go to eServices and register for the course.

If you have questions please visit the Records Webpage or contact the Records Office at 218.477.2565. You can also follow us on Twitter @MSUMRecords for important updates. The Records Office is located in Owens Hall 104. Have a great start to the semester! Go Dragons!
