Students entering Relay in their first term of enrollment or through reenrollment are registered for courses by the Registrar’s Office on their behalf. In each subsequent term, students who are not on a financial registration hold will register for courses in partnership with their advisor using My Relay Portal during the registration window. The Registrar’s Office might register students for specific courses such as specific state-required Clinical Experience courses. Students needing to make changes to their courses after the registration window closes for the term will need to consult with their advisor. 

 

At times, Relay may need to close or change course sections due to enrollment numbers. In these cases, students will be notified of schedule changes.

 

If students do not intend to be enrolled for an upcoming term, the Registrar’s Office must receive a withdrawal form, a leave of absence application, or an inactive term enrollment request form from students before the end of their current term of enrollment (see Terms for these dates) and no later than the census date of the upcoming term. The forms and application are both accessible in Support Center. Students who do not submit a withdrawal form, a leave of absence application, or an inactive enrollment request form no later than the census date of the upcoming term could be administratively withdrawn from Relay. For more information, please see the process for withdrawing from Relay or taking a leave of absence. Please also see the process for administrative withdrawals

 

Relay bills the tuition and fees for all registered courses within a term on the first day of the term. Changes to registered courses made on or after the start of the term will be reflected on a student’s bill within one (1) business day. Students can see their term’s registered course schedule on their My Relay Portal; bills are available on Nelnet.  

 

Students are responsible for dropping a course or withdrawing from a program prior to the dates on Relay’s refund calendar to receive a full refund of tuition and fees paid for a course within a term. Students that do not drop a scheduled course by the census date listed in the refund calendar will be responsible for the course tuition and fees. Students who are considered a “no show” and are administratively withdrawn from Relay will have all course registrations removed from their Relay profile for that term and tuition updated accordingly. Students with a “no-show” status will have applicable course registrations removed, and tuition will be updated accordingly. 

 

The procedure to register for courses can be found below:

For classes that start after the census date, students may appeal to drop a class within one week of the start of the class by emailing [email protected]

 

After the census date of the term, students also have the option of withdrawing from an individual course by consulting with their advisors and emailing [email protected]

 

Please Note: Withdrawing from an individual course after the census date could have academic and financial implications. Students are encouraged to consult with their advisor and professor prior to requesting to withdraw from an individual course.

Students can change a course section up until the last day of registration.

 

Class section changes made after the last day of registration but before the census date may be granted by the advisor upon a student request.   

 

Class section changes cannot be made after the census date.  

If a student wants to change a class section during the registration window, students can change class sections through My Relay Portal.  

  

If a student wants to change a class section after the registration window has closed, the student should consult with their advisor who may be able to change a class section on the student’s behalf through the census date if the class has not yet started.  

If a change needs to be made to a class section that begins after the census date, reach out to [email protected] to determine if this is feasible.
