Holds are indicators placed on your record that can prevent you from taking certain actions (e.g., enrolling in classes or requesting a transcript).
Notifications are reminders or messages on your student record that usually do not prevent you from enrolling in classes or completing other campus activities. They may let you know about your current status or remind you to take action to avoid getting a hold (e.g., Student Success Workshop)
