Terminology, Definitions, and Responsibilities
Priority Registration: The first opportunity to schedule classes for the next semester. Usually a one week period during the semester prior to the registration semester during which students are assigned a registration appointment based on the number of hours a student has earned and/or other priority conditions (i.e. disability status, honors program, athletics, veterans, etc.). All currently enrolled students are expected to register for classes during Priority Registration. Academic advising, when required, is available to all students prior to Priority Registration.
Open Registration: The period following Priority Registration and lasting until the Final Schedule Adjustments Deadline. All eligible students, including those who did not register during Priority Registration, may register anytime 24 hours/day, 7 days/week during this period. Academic Advisors are not always available during this period so students should contact their department to schedule an advising appointment.
Freshman Orientation: Required of all beginning freshmen and transfer freshmen. Orientation is a program that provides an overview of university policies and procedures, academic advising, and course registration.
Fee Payment Deadline: Students who have not paid by the Fee Payment Deadline will not have access to other university services such as textbook rentals, ID services, parking decals, housing, meal plans, etc. Students are responsible for tuition and fees for all courses that remain on their schedule after this deadline. Students who need assistance with dropping their classes or canceling their enrollment by this deadline may email the Office of the Registrar at Registrar@southeastern.edu or call 1-800-222-SELU or 985-549-2066.
Cancellation: Students with a remaining account balance greater than $350.00 will be canceled from classes. Payment must be received and posted to the student’s account. Students whose classes are paid with anticipated aid must drop all their classes before the first day of classes if they do not plan to attend.
Schedule Adjustment: The opportunity for students to register for classes, make schedule changes, or cancel enrollment before classes begin. Students should check their schedule for any classes removed due to low enrollment. Students who decide not to attend must drop all their classes. In order to receive a 100% refund, students must drop to zero hours before the first day of classes.
Add/Drop Period: During the add/drop period, a student may make schedule adjustments without receiving a “W” grade for each class dropped. Students who drop all classes during the add/drop period will incur a cancellation fee of $475.00.
Important: Students are financially responsible for classes remaining on their schedule by the final day of the add/drop period.
