For students considering a change of major, the degree audit is also used to present a “what if” showing how their past and current classes may fulfill the requirements of a different major.

Prerequisites

  • Create academic degrees (e.g. certificate, bachelor’s, etc.) and associate them with degree levels (e.g. undergraduate, graduate, etc.)

  • Create majors which may be majors, minors or certificate programs. Majors should lead to a credential such as a certificate, bachelors, etc.

  • Create courses required to complete the academic program in the course catalog. For all aspects of the degree audit to function, all course codes must have a consistent length of subject codes. For example, having the course codes MT100 and COM303 will not function because MT and COM are different character lengths.

Level Group: This indicates the type of match that will satisfy a requirement. The level group is specified in master requirement (sequence number=0).  The remaining records in the set (requirement number = master record requirement number and sequence number > 0) detail the course information that if met will satisfy the requirements. 

  • Level Group 1: specific course requirement. For example, the student must take and pass English 101.

  • Level Group 2: course enrollments fitting into a program based on the course’s subject. For example, any biology course.

  • Level Group 3: course enrollments in an arbitrary group For example, the group HUM requires HUM101, HUM102 and HUM198.

  • Level Group 4: free electives – any passing grade enrollment not used by another prior requirement. This is essentially a catch all.

This level group is not to be confused with the degree level found in the degree and enrollment.
