The class I added does not appear in my schedule. What is wrong? |
Scroll down to the bottom of the page to the red stop sign with the heading "Registration Errors". A brief explanation of the error is in the "Status" column. The most common error message is "MAJOR RESTRICTION", which means the course you want to add is restricted to students in that major.

I just added
or dropped some classes in Hokie SPA, but
when I looked at my Original Class Ticket,
the changes did not show up. What is wrong
and how do I view my current list of classes? |
The Original Class
Ticket is the class ticket that is created
when you first add classes for a term. If
you add or drop classes later, the Original
Class Ticket will not change to reflect your
current list of classes.
To view your current
list of classes, refer to Viewing
or Confirming Your Class Schedule. |
