Running an Audit
Whenever accessing a Degree Audit, it is best practice to process a new audit by clicking the “Process” button. By default, the audit includes in-progress (coursework registered in this term) and preregistered (coursework for a future term) coursework in audit calculations. These can be excluded by unchecking the appropriate box and processing a new audit.

A. The Degree Works Header
This section lists all relevant information for a student’s degree. This includes ID, classification, major(s), and the primary advisor. If a student has multiple degrees, they will be able to toggle from one to another in the Degree Section of the header. Additionally, there are three icons above:
Save as PDF/Print – This will allow you to save the audit as a PDF on your computer or print the PDF.
Contact information for all advisors assigned to a student. While the header lists the primary advisor for a student (and pre-professional) it is likely a student has multiple advisors. This leter icon will list all advisors assigned to a student. If viewing the student’s audit as an advisor, the student’s email address will also be provided.
The three dots include additional information. For students, this includes class history. Advisors can submit and see the status of exceptions.
B. The Degree Works Header
This lists an estimation of how much of a degree a student has completed. If a student has completed 98% of requirements, they are considered to have met all degree requirements pending successful completion of currently enrolled coursework. If a student has 100%, they have completed all requirements and eligible for degree certification. The GPA listed in this section draws directly from the transcript calculation (the Banner GPA).
