Registration
You will be notified by email of your registration appointment for the upcoming semester. Once notified, view your appointment via MySlice, under Student Services. Prior to your registration appointment, do the following:
Check your MySlice account to ensure that the only hold you have is an advising hold.
Run a degree audit through Degree Works.
Prepare a tentative course schedule using search for classes on MySlice and record it on a registration advising form.
Schedule a meeting with your academic and/or faculty advisor to finalize your schedule and have your advising hold removed.
First and second year students should meet with their academic advisor.
Third and fourth year students should meet with their faculty advisor.
This is also a great time to ask for a credit check and to discuss any petitions you may need for fulfilling requirements toward your degree.
Check your MySlice account to view your enrollment appointment.
Follow the prompts on MySlice to register.
Late Registration
If you are a continuing student and did not register during the early registration period, you will register during the first week of classes. If you are returning from a leave of absence, or have been readmitted, you will register during opening weekend or the first week of classes. In order to register you must:
...
If the first day of a flexible format class has not passed and you have registered for other regular session classes, you will not be charged a late registration fee. But, if your initial successful registration for the term is for a flexible session class, and the add deadline for the term has passed, you will be charged a late registration fee.
Holds on Registration
A hold on your registration means that a particular office on campus has blocked you from registering. There are many types of holds. Here are some common ones:
ADV (Advising Required): Schedule a registration advising appointment with your academic and/or faculty advisor.
If you are a dually enrolled music education major or inclusive adolescent education major, meet with both your content area school college advisor and your SOE advisor.
PAH (Probationary Hold): Schedule an appointment with your academic advisor.
BU1 (Bursar Hold): Contact the Bursar.
HC or HS1 (Health Center Hold): Contact Health Care services.
PK1 or PK2 (Parking Hold): Contact Parking and Transportation Services.
LI1 or LI2 (Library Hold): Contact Syracuse University Libraries.
SRR (Student Rights and Responsibilities Hold): Contact Community Standards.
AIV (Academic Integrity Violation Hold): Contact the Center for Learning and Student Success.
Enrollment Permissions
Permissions allow a student to register for a course that is restricted or full. To register for a restricted course you must contact the department offering the course.
Schedule Adjustment
During the first week of classes, you may add or drop classes using MySlice.
You must inform your academic or faculty advisor about the changes you make.
For flex long and flex short classes, please check the add/drop deadlines in MySlice/Class Search (dates and deadlines icon on left).
Late Adding a Class
Once the schedule adjustment period is over, a course may only be added through the late add process, by filling out a request to late add a class form which will be reviewed and decided upon by the Office of the Registrar.
Complete and sign a request to late add a class.
Have the form signed by the instructor.
Submit the form to the Office of Academic and Student Services or to your home school/college.
Add/Drop
The academic/financial drop deadline is the deadline for dropping a course so that it will not appear on your transcript.
...
You can add or drop a class via your MySlice account on or before the deadline.
Withdrawal Deadline
If you have missed the academic/financial drop deadline, you may withdraw from a course up until the withdrawal deadline. A WD will appear on your transcript. A WD does not affect your semester or cumulative GPA. To withdraw from a course:
...
Submit the form to SOE’s Office of Academic and Student Services or, if you are dually enrolled, your home school/college.
Drop/Withdrawal Restrictions
You may not drop or withdraw from courses to the point of becoming a part-time student (registered for less than 12 credits) without the permission of SOE’s Office of Academic and Student Services.
You are not allowed to drop or withdraw from a course in which you have been charged with an academic integrity violation. Dropping or withdrawing from a required course may impact your progress toward a degree if the course is a prerequisite.
International students are not allowed to drop or withdraw from classes if any of these actions bring their registration to lower than 12 credits, as they must keep a full-time status while studying in the United States.
Registering for More Than 19 Credits
Full-time undergraduate students typically register for 12-19 credits per semester.
...
Undergraduates registering for more than 19 credit hours will be assessed the appropriate extra tuition charges, unless they qualify for an overload rate exception.
Special Types of Courses and Credits
Independent Study and Experience Credit
Independent study and experience credit are individualized learning experiences that you develop with a faculty member or professional. You may register to receive credit for these experiences. For independent study, you are actually creating an academic experience for yourself. You must work with a faculty member to identify content, develop assignments, and decide how work will be evaluated. For experience credit, you will work with a professional and/or a faculty member in your field of study. You will plan out an experience that relates to your major and that contributes a new level of understanding about your field of study.
...
Follow up with the instructor to ensure that a grade is submitted.
Transfer Credits
If you wish to take courses at another institution and receive credit at Syracuse University, you must take the following steps:
...
The grades for transfer courses are not calculated in your Syracuse University GPA and cannot be used to “flag” the grade already received in a similar course taken at Syracuse from your GPA. You must request an official transcript from the college and send it electronically or by mail to SOE’s Office of Academic and Student Services.
