The Cyberbear registration system will alert a student when a course request is
denied. The following are Cyberbear error messages.
Campus Restriction
Students are admitted to specific campuses depending on if they are taking faceto-face classes or enrolled as a Distance Learning student. You must take courses

You Cannot Drop Your Last Class

are coded as: Level 01 = Undergraduate; Level 02 = Graduate; Level 03 = Law.
Linked Course Required
This course has a co-requisite section linked to a primary section. The primary
section is typically the larger, common lecture and the co-linked section is either
a smaller lab or discussion section. For example, BIOL 221, section 1 carries 4
credits. The student must select Section 1 and also select one of Sections 2 – 5
which carry no credits. When registering, the student must register for the
primary section and the linked section at the same time.

Credit Override” form signed by their academic advisor. Not all Maximum Credit
Overrides are approved.
Invalid Advising Number

during the academic year (except for summer) which is why students need to see
their advisors at least once during autumn and spring semesters.

reasons are: missing or incomplete medical history form; missing SAT or ACT
scores; financial aid repayment; Behavioral Health Options program
