All undergraduate students, who entered UNI spring 1982 or later will receive a degree audit and advisement report. The purpose of this report is to provide you with information on how the courses you have completed and are currently registered for apply to your degree requirements. This report is to serve as your guide for scheduling classes.

While we believe this report is basically self-explanatory, extensive use of abbreviations was mandated by form size. The following is an explanation of the most common abbreviations and symbols.

• 971  -  The first two digits show the year and the third digit the term. The academic year begins with the summer term; therefore 981 is summer 1998, 982 is fall 1998 and 983 is spring 1999.
  
  

• TRN  -   Course transferred to UNI.
  
  
• WAV  -  A course that has been waived and is no longer required.
  
  
• SUB  -  A course which is substituted by another course.
  
  
• X  -  Exempt or credit by exam.
  
  
• P  -  Passed.
  
  
• (C-)  -  The bracket indicates a grade which does not satisfy the course requirement.
  
  
• %  -  Indicates regressive or duplicate credit.
  
  
• =  -  Restricted Credit
  
  
• #  -  A course which repeats another course.
  
  
  NOTE: During the semester you repeat a course you have previously taken, your hours needed may be inflated. This situation will adjust itself once you successfully complete the repeated course.

We have endeavored to show the results of any special student requests you may have had approved. These actions will most likely be shown by the WAV and SUB transactions previously listed or in special comments.

Your degree audit and advisement report is divided into sections. The titles and explanation of those sections follow.

Graduation Summary

Your advisement report begins with your graduation summary. The section tells you by categories the hours you need to complete and the hours you have earned.

University Competency Summary

The university competency summary identifies your status towards meeting these graduation requirements. If the status code is "needs", then you still need to satisfy this requirement.

General Education

Each category will show as being satisfied or not satisfied. Courses, hours and grades will be listed with each requirement they satisfy. Therefore the same course may appear more than once on your degree audit.

Major

Your major summary is listed next. Grades with a bracket ( ) do not satisfy the course requirement. Please pay close attention to your sub-group and elective requirements. You will find courses separated by an "and", an "or", or a semi-colon. Groups of courses will usually be preceded by a statement explaining your selection options for that group.

Minor

Next will occur your minor if you have one. The comments made above regarding your major are equally applicable with your minor.

Professional Education

If you are seeking teaching licensure the next section will be the professional education requirements.

Professional Methods

The professional methods section is a list of courses used to calculate the professional methods grade point average to determine eligibility for student teaching. These courses are already listed as required courses for the major and, therefore, do not consist of any additional graduation requirements.

University Electives

The last section of this report is the courses you have completed that are considered to be university electives. These are courses that do not meet specific categorical requirements.

We hope you will find your degree audit and advisement report to be a valuable tool for charting your progress towards your degree. If you have questions about your report please feel free to contact your academic advisor, the Office of Academic Advising or your Record Analyst in the Registrar's Office.
