Spring 2027 Advising Hold Timeline

Wednesday, Aug. 26: The Business Analysis & Operations team contacted departments with existing holds.
Thursday, Sept. 3:
- Deadline for departments with existing holds to submit additions, changes or deletions.
- Deadline for departments to request a new advising hold (email your request to regsystemsdata@colorado.edu).
Wednesday, Sept. 9: Deadline for departments to submit SID lists for batch processing (if applicable).
Thursday, Sept. 10: The Business Analysis & Operations team begins setting advising holds.
Monday, Oct. 5 at noon: Final advising hold deadline.
Monday, Oct. 12: Assigned Spring 2027 enrollment dates are visible to students in Buff Portal. No new advising holds will be assigned.

We will begin setting Spring 2027 academic advising holds (a.k.a., advising service indicators) for continuing students after fall census and expect to complete that process on Monday, Sept. 21. Once set, these holds will prevent students in those programs from registering until they've met with their academic advisor.

If your department would like to discuss creating a new advising hold for Spring 2027, email the Systems & Data Services team with the details of your request by Thursday, Sept. 3.

Review Your Holds

If your department currently uses advising holds, you should have received an email from the Business Analysis & Operations team last week to confirm the population and text of your hold. Reply with any necessary changes, additions or deletions by Thursday, Sept. 3.

If your department's advising holds are assigned using an SID list, submit your list by noon on Wednesday, Sept. 9. Lists submitted after that date will be processed in the order in which they're received, allowing at least two business days for processing.

Notify Your Students

To support student success, academic departments are responsible for notifying their students when an advising hold is placed and for providing a clear explanation of the steps the student must take to have it released.

If you wish to request an e-memo, student communications are distributed by Strategic Relations & Communications using �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder Today and associated campus communication tools. Visit the �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder Today website to view the different tools (e.g., �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder Today stories and administrative e-memos) and submit your message for campus audiences.

Release Holds Promptly

Advising holds include a timeline for release (e.g., "After you've met with your advisor, your hold will be removed within three business days"). Please remove the advising hold as soon as you can after the student has received advising toensure compliance with this timeline.

For step-by-step instructions for both manual and batch removal, see our advising holds page.
