What if the major or minor is listed incorrectly or if the minor is not listed?
Degree Works displays the major/minor on record for the student. To make changes,
please consult with your advisor for assistance.
What if a student has a double major/degree/concentration, but only one is listed?
If you seeking a second major or additional concentration, ensure this information
is listed in your student information block. If not, consult your advisor for assistance
on updating this information. If you are seeking a second degree, select the arrow
next to the “Degree” block menu dropdown box located at the very top of the screen.
If the second major is not listed in the drop down, consult your advisor for assistance
on updating this information.
The major requirements don’t look quite right. What could be wrong?
Double check the catalog year listed on the Degree block to make sure it matches what
requirements you are following. If you wish to change catalog years, consult with
your advisor to see if this is a beneficial option for you.
The major requires a concentration but there are no courses listed in Degree Works for this requirement.
Please consult with your advisor to update this requirement.
How do we make a substitution for a course requirement?
Please consult with your advisor for assistance in initiating a substitution request.
Once approved by the Dean’s office, the request will be loaded as an exception into
Degree Works.
There are a lot of courses in the ‘Courses Not Applied to Audit’ section. Why?
If a student has changed majors, courses that were once required may no longer be
needed by the new major. Students may have taken more elective courses than required
by the major. Students may be pursuing a concentration or minor they need to officially
declare.
What do I do with courses in the General Electives section?
Please review audit closely and consult with your advisor to see if unused courses
could be applied throughout the audit.
Is Degree Works my official degree audit?
This degree audit report is a tool that you may use for assessing your progress toward
your degree and for planning your future course work. Although we attempt to assure
that the information in the degree audit report is accurate, it is not an official
transcript of your academic record and it is not an official notification of completion
of degree or certificate requirements. You should contact the Registrar's Office for
your official degree/certificate conferral status or to obtain a copy of your academic
transcript. If you need assistance in interpreting this report, please contact your
academic advisor.
What is the “What If”?
The What If Analysis is a Degree Works feature that allows a student to select a program
that they might be interested in pursuing to see how their completed and registered
coursework would fulfill the requirements for that possible program. If you are thinking
of adding a major/minor or changing majors, this is a great tool to show you how your
previous courses can be applied to your potential degree.
What is the GPA Calculator?
There are two different GPA calculators in Degree Works. The Advice Calculator helps
you to determine how to reach a desired GPA. The Term Calculator helps you to predict
what your GPA will be for the current semester based on the grades you think you will
earn in each class.
