What is a Degree Evaluation?
The degree evaluation system is a web-based tool designed to provide students with a view of their progress toward degree and to serve as an advising tool, to determine which classes still need to be taken to complete degree requirements. A “what-if” component is also available, which allows students to assess the impact of a change in major by applying current courses toward a new degree plan.
