ACCESSING THE PREPARE FOR REGISTRATION MENU

STEP 1

Log into POUNCE

STEP 2

Click "Student", either the link or tab.

STEP 3

Click "Registration Menu"

STEP 4

Click "Registration"

STEP 5

Click "Prepare for Registration"

The "Prepare for Registration" menu shows the student's information, including any registration holds that may prevent the student from moving forward with registration. If the student's status on the screen is marked green, the student is all clear for registration. If any of the items are red, the student needs to contact the appropriate office to resolve their status prior to registration.

Additionally, in this menu, the student is also able to see any permit overrides for registration that they may have been granted. Permit overrides allow for students to bypass a pre-requisite or co-requisite needed for a course, likely due to an exam or placement testing score received. Beneath the permit overrides section (if a student has any) are the student's earned hours of credit, including transfer credits for transient students, and their class standing for registration purposes.

The "Schedule and Options" tab in this menu allows for students to email their schedules to themselves and add their class information to their mobile device's calendar.
