Understanding Your Degree Requirements

Each student’s graduation plan (Grad Plan tab) in My Degree Works is created as an individualized plan according to the student’s academic program, transferred units and timeline for completion to ensure all degree requirements and institutional policies are satisfied. Select the Grad Plan tab at the top of the Degree Audit to find your latest Grad Plan.

Viewing Your Grad Plan

Students are able to view their Grad Plan using three different modes; Notes Mode, Calendar Mode and Audit Mode. To select an alternate viewing mode, select the Grad Plan tab, select the pull down menu under “View” at the right hand side of the screen, and select from Notes Mode, Calendar Mode, Audit Mode. To view prior Grad Plans, select View Plan List at the top right of the screen.

Notes Mode - The Notes mode will automatically populate when a student selects the Grad Plan tab. Students are able to view the Grad Plan semester by semester, execute a course query, view all notes included on individual courses, terms or at the top of the Grad Plan, view total number of units required in each semester and view minimum grades required by the department. Students may Print to PDF using the Print button at the bottom right of the screen.

Calendar Mode - The Calendar mode allows students to view course requirements by semester organized in academic calendar years. In Calendar mode, students are able to execute a course query, view all notes on the Grad Plan by clicking on the notepad icon and view the total number of units required in each semester. Students may Print to PDF using the Print button at the bottom right of the screen.

Audit Mode - The Audit mode allows students to compare the degree requirements from their Degree Audit with their Grad Plan. In Audit mode, students are able to execute a course query, view all notes on the Grad Plan by clicking on the notepad icon and view the total number of units required in each semester. Students may Print to PDF using the Print button at the bottom right of the screen. The Audit mode should be used primarily when working with an Academic Advisor.
