Registration Features
How to waitlist for a course:
Waitlist Directions
Auto-waitlist function
Students who are on a course waitlist will be notified via their UM-Flint email account as seats become available. Students will have 48 hours from the time of the email being sent to register for the course online in SIS.
- If the student does not register within the 48 hours, they will be dropped off the waitlist.
Adding online between the 1st day of the semester and the add deadline
Students will be able to add classes online in SIS between 1st day and the add/drop deadline if seats are available.
Schedule Changes
Adds/Drops can be done on the SIS website during Open Registration through the add deadline if seats are available. A $15 late registration fee will be charged to all students attempting to register for the first time beginning on the first day of the semester. Drops can be done on SIS through the final drop deadline (see calendar for specific dates).
Cancellation of Classes (before the semester begins)
If you wish to cancel/drop all of your classes before the semester begins, you must either drop all of your classes via the web (SIS) no later than 11:59 pm the night before a semester begins OR notify the Office of the Registrar in writing BEFORE the first official day of the semester or you will be assessed appropriate tuition and fees based on the tuition fee schedule.
Withdrawal from classes (after the semester begins)
Beginning the first day of the semester, registered students who decide not to complete the term must officially withdraw from the term. Students who withdraw (drop all classes) via the web (SIS) or in person using the withdrawal form during the late registration period will be charged a $100 withdrawal charge. After the late registration period, an additional portion of the tuition (plus fees) will be charged according to the tuition fee schedule.
Petitions to Drop or Withdraw after deadlines (University Appeal Committee)
University of Michigan-Flint policy provides students an opportunity to drop or withdraw without petitioning during certain deadlines. Dates and deadlines may be found at http://www.umflint.edu/registrar/academic-calendars.
In the event a deadline is missed, students may submit a petition for late drop or withdrawal with the University Appeal Committee, Office of the Registrar, 266 University Pavilion. Petitions and documentation must be received by the following deadlines:
Fall semester - March 31; Winter semester - July 31; Spring/Summer - Sept 1
Petitions will be considered for valid and documented medical reasons or the death of an immediate family member. Immediate family member is defined by the University of Michigan Standard Practice Guide as spouse or other qualified adult, son, daughter, parent, grandparent, grandchild, brother, sister (or spouse of any of them), of the student. If circumstances cannot be documented, petitions cannot be approved. Decisions of the University Appeal Committee are final.
