Holds
Please check either Enroll and Pay or your Kyou portal in the Advising tab for this information and note the following information regarding advising holds:

• First Advising Hold (FAH): Students who have an initial term of Spring 2008, Summer 2008 and Fall 2008 will receive this hold. Transfer students with 60 – 90 hours will get this hold if they have an initial term of Summer or Fall 2008. All College of Liberal Arts & Sciences students who are new to KU are required to meet with an advisor before enrolling in courses. The purpose of this advising appointment is to not only plan for the student’s next semester but to continue their education on degree requirements, tools specific to academic advising and policies that they need to be aware of as a College student. The College feels that the best place for students to receive this information is at the University Advising Center since this is one of their primary roles.

• First Advising Hold for 90+ hrs. Students (FA9): Students whose initial term at KU is Summer 2008 or Fall 2008 and who have completed 90+ credit hours will receive this hold. This hold is designed primarily to assist transfer students who are at the senior level with graduation planning, transfer work review and advising tools that the student will be required to utilize. Students are directed to meet with an advisor in CLAS Student Academic Services, 109 Strong Hall.

Please note that you will need to clear all other holds before you will be able to enroll.
