To avoid conflict with student-athlete practice and competition schedules and allow for the least number of missed classes for athletic participation, student-athletes are granted priority registration. Priority registration is a privilege and can be revoked by failure to follow appropriate advising and registration procedures.
Each term, priority registration start dates and times will be scheduled by the University Registrar and can be accessed here.
Priority registration is a designated time period where student-athletes can register for their courses BEFORE the rest of the campus community provided the outlined requirements have been met.
Prior to accessing priority registration, all student-athletes are required to meet with an academic advisor in their academic college or department to discuss their degree plan and seek degree applicable course recommendations. At this meeting, the academic advisor will remove the student’s advising hold so that they can then register for classes.
Please be aware that any member of the athletics staff WILL NOT remove a student-athlete advising hold.

Dropping/Adding Classes
Prior to the start of an academic term and during the first week of classes, student-athlete may change their schedule with the direct assistance from the Assistant Athletic Director for Student Athlete Academic Success. The student-athlete must reach out to the Assistant Athletic Director by email and copy their head coach to set up a meeting to discuss the plan.
After the first week of classes, student-athletes may not add classes, but can potentially drop classes with the explicit written permission of the Assistant Athletic Director for Student Athlete Academic Success.
Should a student-athlete feel they are in academic jeopardy they should immediately seek the advice/assistance from the Assistant Athletic Director for Academic Success.
If a student athlete withdraws from a course and is no longer enrolled full-time (full-time is defined as 12 credits or more), the student athlete would then be ineligible.
A dropped course will not warrant any financial refund. If the student athlete withdraws from a course after the add/drop deadline, the course will be recorded on a student-athlete’s transcript with the mark of “W,” but will not impact a student-athlete’s term or cumulative GPA.
Please refer to the University Academic Calendar for the current university term for add and drop deadlines.

Withdrawal for Non-Payment
If a student-athlete’s tuition is not paid by the end of the first week of classes, the student-athlete will risk having his or her classes dropped for non-payment. Should a student-athlete's classes be dropped for non-payment, he or she will immediately render themselves ineligible for practice and competition until such time that he or she re-enrolls in classes.
To avoid withdrawal for non-payment or other financial or university penalties, student-athletes should view their account balance via WISER regularly and address any account balances.
Please also feel free to stop by OneStop and ask to speak with the Bursar’s office if you have any questions regarding your tuition bill.
