Appointment Errors
-
Students must wait until their assigned date and time in order to register. An error will also occur if you do not have an enrollment appointment. If you have applied to graduate and were missing requirements, you will need to change your graduation term by submitting a Request for Change of Graduation Term. If you are a new student, you must attend the mandatory orientation to receive a registration appointment.
-
A: Enrollment appointments can be viewed in your Student Center within CI Records. Log into your myCI account and go to your Student Center. The appointment is located on the right hand side.
Permission Number Errors
-
Permission numbers are specific to course prefix and section number. (Example: HIST 333, Section 01 – cross listed with CHS 333, Section 01). These permission numbers are one-time use for a specific section only. An enrollment error will occur if the permission number used is not for exact prefix and section. You may need to go back to the instructor for a new permission number for the exact section that you would like to enroll.
-
Once you have selected the class, you will be taken to the Enrollment Preferences page. You may enter a class specific Permission Number as shown below. Note: Your professor will give you a permission number if they have allowed you into the class. The permission number can only be used by one student and cannot be shared.
-
Permission numbers expire after the third week of classes and adding is no longer permitted, per campus policy. If you have an extenuating reason for a late add, you will need to submit an Late Add Petition with instructor and program chair signatures to Registrar’s Office.
Prerequisite Errors
-
Departments may choose to reserve seats in courses for students in a particular major. You may place yourself on the waitlist for the course. As seats become available to students that do not meet the reserve capacity, students from the waitlist will be moved into the course in accordance to the number of seats available.
