California State University-Monterey Bay student account questions
What happens if I have an unpaid balance at CSUMB?
CSUMB places financial holds on your account for outstanding balances. Hold codes SF1–SF4 and SFC (outstanding balance) can block registration, adding/dropping classes, viewing grades and transcripts, and graduating — and may take up to 24 hours to clear once resolved. A PAY (payment extension) hold does NOT block registration. No specific dollar thresholds are published publicly. Contact the Bursar's Office at student_receivables@csumb.edu or 831-582-4022 to resolve your balance.
What holds can prevent me from registering at CSUMB?
Registration holds at CSUMB include: financial holds (SF1–SF4, SFC for outstanding balances), advising holds (ADV/DMJR for undeclared major after 60 units, ADV/PROB for academic probation, ADV/UNITS for progress to degree), immunization holds via Complio, and administrative/conduct holds (AH, D, SCD/SCH). Check your holds in the OASIS student portal at csumb.edu/dashboard/. For financial holds, contact the Bursar's Office (student_receivables@csumb.edu, 831-582-4022). For advising holds, contact the Center for Advising and Student Success (advising@csumb.edu, 831-582-3937).
