5. How are these registration errors resolved?

  • Message "You are not eligible to enroll at this time."
  • This means either your credit level has not been met, or you are on-track and not allowed to take the class, or you are attempting to register for class before the first day of registration.
    • The website automatically returns to the previous page when a certain point is reached.
  • Disable the pop-up blocker on your browser by holding down the CTRL key on the keyboard.
    •   The class is full, and I want to be on a waiting list.
  • There are no waiting lists. Attend the first night of class and, if seats are available, request to be added by the instructor.  You may also email the instructor prior to the first class meeting and ask to be added to the class.
