A hold is an indicator that indicates services that may be either withheld or provided to an individual. Negative service indicators indicate holds that prevent the individual from receiving specified services, such as check-cashing privileges or registration for classes. Positive service indicators designate special services that are provided to the individual, such as front-of-line service or special services for disabled students

 

Hold can be positive or negative, say for example you have this hold RE1. This means that you cannot register because you have not paid the registration fee. If you have TA1, this means that you are a top achiever and might be eligible for certain privileges.
