Degree Works is a computerized degree audit program and academic advising tool designed to help you and advisors review progress of program requirements, prepare for registration, and plan for graduation.

Degree Works is a computerized degree audit program and academic advising tool designed to help you and advisors review the progress of program requirements, prepare for registration, and plan for graduation.
A Degree Works audit is an easy-to-read view of your requirements for your program of study. The audit is essentially a checklist of program requirements. Completed and in-progress courses are used to fill spots with the audit worksheet showing which requirements have been completed, which are in progress, and what course/requirements remain.
Advisors and all currently enrolled students can use Degree Works.
A degree audit can be reviewed at any time but it is recommended to do so at least four times a semester:
Before you meet with your advisor to register for classes for the next semester.
After registration to ensure courses apply to program requirements.
After grades for each semester are posted.
Degree Works will help:
Degree Works can be accessed by going to your BannerWeb account and will be located under Student Records.
No, Degree Works is a snapshot of courses in progress, planned, and in your academic history. Registration and drop/add are still handled through BannerWeb.
Yes, once grades have been recorded at the end of the semester, they are viewable in Degree Works.
The information in Degree Works is refreshed each night. Any changes made today (e.g., grade change, program change, or schedule changes) will be seen in Degree Works the next day.
You should consult your academic advisor for a review of your audit.
The course did not meet either the minimum number of credits and or minimum grade requirement for your program of study, or all the requirements have been met and this course is simply not needed.
No, Degree Works is an unofficial audit of coursework, as well as an outline of program requirements.
Not necessarily. If you have applied to graduate, the Registrar’s Office will perform a final audit after all final grades have been submitted to determine if you are eligible to graduate. Missing requirements will be communicated to you via email.
Graduation application status is listed under “Graduation Status” on your audit. If the Status is “Sought” for any major you have completed one term in but not completed the program requirements. Once you submit a graduation application the Registrar’s Office changes the status to “Pending” when you have passed the initial graduation audit. “Awarded” means you have graduated from a program. Date Received contains the graduation date for “Pending” or “Awarded” programs.
The “What If” audit function allows you to hypothetically change your major. The “What If” audit will show you what coursework is required for the new major, what courses you have taken that satisfy requirements, and what courses are still left for you to take. Please note, “What If” audits are unofficial and do not guarantee that you will be able to major in a selected major. If you decide to change your major, you should visit the advisor for your intended major and then submit a Change of Program form to Admissions.
Since a “What If” audit is not stored in Degree Works, your advisor can only see your results if the two of you work through a “What If” procedure together.
The “What If” tool requires that you make a selection in the “Major” field. Failure to select a major will result in an error.
Degree Works “Plans” provides access to the grad plan – an individualized lay out of the recommended sequence of coursework to fulfill program requirements. Grad plans are created with your academic advisor during advisement. Please note, “Plans” are unofficial roadmaps and are not binding. However, they are a useful tool for course sequencing to assist you in graduating as soon as possible.
Your academic advisor is your primary contact for questions concerning your program of study, course selections, change of major, academic achievement and degree requirements.
DegreeWorks is designed to aid and facilitate academic advising but is not intended to replace face-to-face advising sessions. It is neither an official academic transcript nor an official notification of degree requirements and should not be treated as such.
