Grad Plan

Your grad plan is an outline of which classes you will take in each semester until you graduate. Your advisor has created your grad plan based off of your degree requirements, and they will update your grad plan each semester. Please note that your grad plan is often a rough guideline; some classes are flexible, and some classes must be taken at a specific time.
