| Fall/Winter | Fall Semester |
| Winter/Spring | Winter Semester |
| Spring/Fall | Spring Semester |
At the beginning of each semester, the university notifies students who need to complete a continuing endorsement, placing a hold on their registration account until the endorsement is completed.

Once students complete the online portion of the continuing endorsement, they are eligible for an endorsement interview with their campus bishop. The purpose of this meeting is to foster communication between students and ecclesiastical leaders. It provides bishops an opportunity to review each student’s understanding and commitment of the Honor Code. After a successful interview, the bishop may approve his portion of the online endorsement which will release the hold on the student’s registration account.
