Degree Works is a digital degree audit and advising tool that helps students and advisors track academic progress, course requirements, and graduation planning efficiently. This user-friendly platform ensures a clear pathway to degree completion, enhancing academic guidance at ÂÜÀòÉç (ÂÜÀòÉç).

A degree audit is a review of past, current and required courses needed for degree completion. The audit is organized in block format displaying requirements for completion of general education, major, concentration and minor. The boxes are a type of checklist, those areas that are complete have a checked box and those that remain are not checked.

Degree Works extracts all student courses from Banner and displays how the courses are applied to the requirements for the student's general education, major, concentration and minor in accordance with the University Catalogue.

Degree Works is refreshed every evening from Banner. Therefore the information that is updated during the day will be displayed in Degree Works the following morning. If updated information is needed to review immediately, students and academic advisors may still be able to use Banner or the  web portal.
