Academic Advising Frequently Asked Questions

Please see the University's Academic Calendar for the updated important dates to remember for each semester.

Students are able to register for classes on their student center until the 3rd day of the semester. However, each registration period has a "Save Your Spot" (SYS) registration deadline for continuing students. If students do not register full-time (12cr fall/winter or 8cr spring) by the SYS deadline, they will receive a $75 student medical benefit fee. Keep in mind this does not include waitlisted courses.

SYS deadlines remain the same every year:
Fall semester- June 15
Winter semester- Nov 1
Spring semester- March 1

Students are required to register for a minimum of 12 credits during fall and winter semesters and 8 credits in the spring semester to be full-time. Students are eligible to take a maximum of 18 credits for fall and winter semester and a maximum of 12 credits in the spring.

Holds can be viewed at the top right of student center. Each department is responsible for clearing their own holds. Please check with the department who placed the hold as they are the only ones who can remove it.

Current or former students can discontinue for a mission following the steps here. Please contact the Regisrar's Office for further questions.

All students are expected to attend all three semesters each year and graduate within their time to graduate. Occasionally, circumstances may require/allow one of the following academic options:

* Part-Time (PT)- only available for domestic students

* Medical Reduced Course Load (MRCL)- medical documentation required. Contact the dean of students for more information.

* Last Semester Reduced Course Load (LRCL)- for graduating students. Please contact an academic advisor.

* Leave of Absence (LOA)- for a one semester break from the university. Requires approval from various campus departments.

* Discontinuance- for students who are taking more than one semester off or who no longer plan to attend BYUH
