You can find out whether you have any holds on your account using
the Holds area of your
LOUIE Student Center.
This can be found located on the right hand side directly
under the green Search For Classes
button as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1
Most students will see a Holds Summary page similar to the
one in Figure 2 below. If you have no holds, there is nothing you
need to do before you enroll for classes. However, in case you do have holds,
you will see directions on what to do in Figure 3 of this tutorial.
Figure 2
When you have holds listed on your LOUIE account select the details
link within the Holds tab to get
more information.
Holds on your record may prevent you from enrolling for
classes or even from graduating. Some possible holds that might be put on your
record include parking fees, library fines, computer lab printing fees, an
advisement requirement, or Scholarship hold. However, some holds like the ones
shown below in Figure 3 are just informational and informing you of your
current academic status.
After selecting the Details
link you will be brought to a list that enumerates all of your current
holds and contains links to the individual ones for more information. Click on
the links located under Hold Item in
the Item list to see this
information.
Figure 3
The information about the specific hold you have selected
will include a description, the start and end term of the hold, the reason for
the hold, the department that issued the hold, contact information on who to
call to resolve the problem, and even a set of instructions on how to go about
getting your hold removed. After viewing the information on the hold you can
return back to the hold list by clicking the return button in the bottom left
corner as shown below in Figure 4.

Center under your course list there is a link called Holds as shown in figure 5 below.
Figure 5
Select the link and it will pull up a menu similar to the
one shown below in Figure 6. If you have no holds, none will appear. On the
