Your degree audit is organized into several sections that work together to show your academic progress, coursework in progress, and remaining unfulfilled degree requirements.
Understanding Your Degree Audit Page
Audit Header
Major
The major displayed at the top of the audit is your primary program of study. If you are pursuing additional majors or minors, they will appear within the body of the audit.
Catalog Year
The catalog year displayed on your audit determines the academic requirements for your degree program. It is typically based on the year you entered the program and defines the courses, policies, and graduation requirements you must complete.
In some cases, your advisor may update your catalog year to align with available courses, academic options or college policies.
Category Chart
The Category Chart provides a visual overview of your progress across different requirement areas. Select a bar in the chart to view more detailed information about the requirements and sub requirements within that category.
View Academic History
The Academic History tab provides a detailed view of the coursework used to determine your degree progress. It includes completed, in-progress, and transfer coursework that has been posted to your academic record.
Courses are organized by term and include details such as:
- Credits earned.
- Grades received.
- Course status.
You can also filter courses by term or grade.

Audit Requirements
Your degree audit organizes coursework into requirement categories that show how classes apply toward your degree.
University Requirements
Includes requirements that apply to all students, such as university GPA requirements, residency requirements, and General Education (GE) requirements. General Education requirements are displayed in a separate section for easier tracking.
College Requirements
Requirements established by your college. Students with majors in different colleges must complete the requirements for each applicable college.
Major Requirements
Includes courses, GPA requirements, and other conditions required for your declared major(s). These requirements may be organized into subsections such as preparatory subject matter, depth subject matter, and restricted electives.
Minor Requirements
Includes courses, GPA requirements, and other conditions required for your declared minor(s).
Courses Not Applying to Major or Minor Requirements (Electives)
Courses that count toward your total units but do not fulfill specific major or minor requirements.
Courses Not Applying to Degree Requirements
Courses that do not count toward degree completion, such as excess units or courses with ineligible grades
Understanding Requirement Details
Each requirement section includes information to help you understand your progress and remaining requirements:
Select From
Lists approved courses that may be used to satisfy the requirement. Some requirements may require courses to be completed as a sequence, while others allow you to choose from a set of options.
Needs
Shows the number of courses or units still required to complete the requirement.
Not From
Identifies courses that cannot be used to satisfy the requirement.
Earned
Displays the number of completed units that apply toward the requirement.
Courses currently being used to satisfy a requirement appear directly beneath the requirement name in a highlighted box. This helps distinguish completed coursework from remaining requirements.
The degree audit automatically applies completed and in-progress coursework to requirements. Because the audit is dynamic, course placement may change as the system recalculates the best fit for fulfilling degree requirements.
Some requirements include additional details about course usage, such as terms in which approved courses were offered, whether a course has been discontinued or limits on the number of units that may apply toward the requirement.
