I keep getting an error when I try to register for a class. What does it mean?
Different errors indicate different issues. Below, you can find some common errors and what they mean/how to fix them.
- Co-requisite Required: Some classes require you take another class in the same semester, like a lecture + a lab. You will need to type the CRNs for BOTH courses into the Registration form at the same time in MyLC and register for both at the same time. If one is full, you can email registrar@lagrange.edu to have us add you to the waitlist for the full class.
- Program Restriction: This means you must be in a specific major or minor to take a class. You can email the instructor of the class to get permission to be added to the course. The instructor will need to email registrar@lagrange.edu to have us override the restriction.
- Pre-Requisite and Test Score error: This indicates the course requires a certain grade or test score for a class or test before you can register for the class. You can see the pre-requisite requirements for the course by clicking on the CRN for the class in the class search. If you feel that you have met the pre-requisite requirements, please email regsitrar@lagrange.edu and we can check on it for you.
- Time Conflict: You are attempting to take two courses that overlap in meeting times. You will need to find a different course to take.
- Closed - "xx" waitlisted: This class is full but has open waitlist seats available. You can add yourself to the waitlist if you would like to be in the queue if a seat becomes available.
- Open - Reserved for waitlist: This class has a seat open, but that seat is reserved for a student on the waitlist. You can add yourself to the waitlist if you would like to be in the queue if a seat becomes available.
What is a waitlist and how does it work?
The waitlist is simply a way to "get in line" for an available seat in a class. When a class fills up, you can add yourself to the waitlist which will record the date/time you waitlisted and add you to the line accordingly.
When should I add to a waitlist?
You can't be in a class and be on the waitlist for a different section of the same class, so you should only add to the waitlist if there are no other possible sections available OR if there are no other sections that will work with your schedule and the other classes in your schedule can't be adjusted either. You are not guaranteed a spot in the class you are on the waitlist for so it is always best to register for a class with open seats when possible.
How do I add to the waitlist?
If you get a "Closed - xx Waitlisted" error when you try to register for a course there will be a dropdown "Action" list next to it and you can select "WaitList" and then click "Submit Changes".
How will I know if I get a seat in the class?
Once a seat opens and you are first on the waitlist, you will receive an email from registrar@lagrange.edu letting you know that a seat has opened up in the course. You will have 1 business day to respond to the email and confirm that you want to be added to the course. After that time you would be dropped from the waitlist and the open seat would move to the next person on the waitlist.
How do I drop a class?
How do I withdraw from a class?
To withdraw from a class you need to complete the Request for Withdrawal form. You can only withdraw from a class after the add/drop period has ended and before or on the last day to withdraw. Both dates can be found on the Academic Calendar.
What is the difference between dropping and withdrawing from a class?
Dropping - can only occur before the Last Day to drop a class (see the Academic Calendar for dates) and will completely remove the course from your transcript, attempted hours, etc.
Withdrawing - will remain on your transcript with a "W" grade. Withdrawals do not impact your GPA, but can impact your Satisfactory Academic Progress/Rate of Progress.
When should I withdraw from a class if I'm not doing well?
You can withdraw from a class anytime prior to the last day to withdraw (typically 2 weeks prior to the end of the term), but if you are withdrawing from all classes you need to continue attending through the 60% mark of the term to prevent your Financial Aid being recalculated/returned in a process call Return to Title IV Funds (R2T4). Before withdrawing from a class please speak to your professor, Academic Advisor, the Financial Aid office and the Business Office to ensure you understand the ramifications of withdrawing.
There are a number of campus resources to assist you if you are struggling in a class. We strongly encourage you to seek assistance from the Tutoring Center, the Writing Center, the Counseling Center, the Library, and/or PACE as soon as you realize that you are having difficulty in a class.
