  • What if my major/minor/concentration is not right on DegreeWorks? Can I change it in DegreeWorks?

    Your major, minor, and/or concentration cannot be changed in DegreeWorks. If your major, minor, or concentration is not right on your degree audit, you must come to the Registrar’s Office to get the Change of Major/Minor/Concentration form and have it signed by the appropriate departments. Once the signatures have been obtained, you must bring the form back to the Registrar’s Office for processing. The updated information with the new major/minor/concentration should now show on your DegreeWorks audit.

  • Can I register for classes in DegreeWorks?

    No. However, DegreeWorks can be used to help you plan for future semesters. If you click on a class still needed for completion, it will give you current/future semester dates, times, and available seats for that class. You still need to obtain an alternate pin from your academic advisor and register online.

  • I want to change my major. Can DegreeWorks show me where I would stand with my coursework with a new major?

    Absolutely. Use the “What-If” analysis to select the major you are interested in. It will pull an audit that factors in the courses you have completed and what is still required for degree completion..
