• There are several ways to get academic help, and you should do so as soon as you notice that you are having difficulties.
• First, you should let your professor know that you鈥檙e struggling and ask if they have any tips for doing well in their class.聽 You should also meet with your advisor to see if there are any habits you can change or study techniques that may be useful to you, as well as inquire about supplemental instruction sessions.聽 Your advisor will be able to speak with you and help you work out exactly where you鈥檙e needing help and how to get it.
• You can also contact the Academic Success Center聽and set up a tutoring appointment, and don鈥檛 be afraid to become study buddies with your classmates.聽 If you are having trouble finding a quiet place to study, the David L. Rice Library on campus offers individual study rooms.

Read the error message that you are receiving. If you are told that the class is full, then there are no more seats remaining in the class.聽You can waitlist the class, but you cannot register for it unless a space opens. If the error message says that you are restricted by major or do not meet the prerequisites for the class, then you have not taken enough required courses to enroll in the class, you may have retaken the class too many times, or it is restricted in some other way.聽If you receive this error but were advised to take this class, please contact your advisor, as you may need an override to register for it. Sometimes, there are special, restricted classes that you can still select under Self Service, even though you cannot enroll in them.聽If a class section is titled something like AO, AS, ND, NC, T0, W, HS, H0, or HO, these are special class designations that are not open to general enrollment and apply only towards certain programs. If you have tried to register for a class with one of these section codes and are receiving an error, that is likely why.聽Typically, your courses will start with numbers or the letters NO or NS.聽You can learn more about section codes here: /registrar/classes/course-numbers-and-section-codes/

What does that mean? If the course is closed, that means that all the seats in that class or section have been taken and you will not be able to register for that class or section. Some courses offer a waitlist, but not every class. If you have questions about the closed class or waitlist, please contact the department that is offering the class. Advisors do not have the ability to put you in a class that is full or on a waitlist.

Students who do not meet the minimum standards of academic progress will be placed on academic probation for one semester. During that semester, the student should make use of the available university resources to improve academic skills and performance. Failure to meet the minimum standards of progress at the end of the probationary semester will result in academic dismissal from the university.

Once you successfully achieved the minimum grade requirements of your probation term and your cumulative GPA is 2.000 or higher, you will be removed from academic probation automatically.

If you are assigned an Academic Advisor in an Advising Center, you can reach out to the Advising Center Director if your are comfortable doing that or you can reach out to David Henriques, the Executive Director for assistance in changing your academic advisor.

If you are assigned to a faculty advisor, you will need to reach out to the Program Chair of the department or the Dean of the College for assistance in changing your academic advisor.

If you are not sure if you have a faculty advisor or an advisor from the Advising Centers, you can email usi.adivsing@usi.edu for help.
