Late Registration

Late registration is registration that takes place after the 100% refund period. There are special Late Registration Guidelines which must be followed:

• The student must complete a Registration Add/Drop form as directed on the guideline sheet of the form.
• To register for classes after the 100% refund period has ended, the Instructor’s signature and the date of the signature is required for each course.  (Students cannot be registered into a course after the 100% refund period without the signature of the Instructor and the date of the signature.)
• After obtaining the Instructor’s signature, return with the completed Registration Add/Drop form to the Records and Registration Department, Madison Hall, Room 201 for processing within two business days (as noted on the Registration Add/Drop form) of receiving the signature.
• You may view and print your schedule from CougarWeb, “My Schedule”.

Special Note:  If, after the 100% refund period, you change courses to a different subject area or in the same subject area without instructor approval, you will receive a refund according to the refund deadline dates and you must pay for the course you are adding.  Please check the web for the refund deadline dates.  A section change is scheduling the same course at a different time, or a different course within the same subject with instructor recommendation on the “Other” line of the Registration Add/Drop form. 

Important Notice for Financial Aid Applicants/Recipients:  Columbus State Community  College  uses a “freeze date” each quarter to determine a student’s enrollment status for disbursing financial aid.  Financial aid will only pay for courses added before the freeze date for a course section.  The financial aid freeze date coincides with the close of the 100% tuition refund period and is determined individually for each class scheduled.  If a student adds or drops classes before the freeze date, the amount of aid for which the student is  eligible may be affected.  Financial aid is not available for courses added after the freeze date.

Students have the responsibility to view their schedule for accuracy and to insure that fees are paid.

The Fee Payment Schedule is available at the Quarter Schedules page on CSCC.edu:

After the third date/drop, courses will no longer be dropped for non-payment of fees. If fees are not paid, a past fees due restriction will be placed on your record by Business Services, Rhodes Hall, Room 234. This restriction will block all future registration.
