DegreeWorks helps by:

  • Displaying the degree requirements and identifying the courses you must complete to earn your degree.
  • Providing a “what if” analysis if you are contemplating changing your major.
  • Providing a direct link to the course description, pre-requisites, and co-requisites.
  • Projecting an estimate of how many semesters it will take you to graduate.

How is a DegreeWorks audit different from your transcript?

  • DegreeWorks presents you with the courses required in your degree plan, as well as the courses that you have already taken.
  • Your transcript is the official college record listing the courses taken each semester.
