Degree Requirements Block

The Degree Requirements block shows any unmet conditions for a degree. This area checks total credits, minimum requirements, and liberal arts and major requirements for undergraduates or program requirements for graduate students.

Once each of these requirements is complete, applicable advice about unmet conditions will be removed from your audit.

General Education Requirements Block

For undergraduates, the audit shows a Liberal Arts Requirements block. Requirements that are completed are checked off in the boxes on the left.

When a requirement has not been met, a list of approved courses for that requirement appears.

Major and Minor or Program Requirements Block

The next block checks major and minor requirements for undergraduates or program requirements for graduate students.

When a requirement has not been met, a list of applicable courses appears.

The catalog term that is being used for your audit is listed on the right side of the blue bars that separate the parts of the audit.
