Frequently Asked Questions on Reinstatement and Late Registration

Reinstatement pertains to students who were previously registered for a course(s) and requested to be placed back into their courses. 

Late registration will affect students who never registered, who were never reinstated, or who want to add a course to their schedule.  During the late registration time period, we must verify that space is available in the section for the student and that the instructor is agreeable to allowing the student in the class.  Instructor permission is required.

The reinstatement form is emailed to students the day they are dropped from their classes.  When the student submits the form, it goes various financial offices for review.  When all financial obligations have been met, the student is registered.  Students are notified by email when processing is complete.

After the reinstatement period ends, a link will be posted on the JSU Registrar website to the Late Registration Form. Once all instructor approvals are obtained, the form is sent to various financial offices.  When all financial obligations have been met, the student is ready to be registered – the form is sent to the Registrar’s Office.  The student is notified via email when processing is complete.
