How Do I Use the
DegreeWorks
Student Audit
Worksheet?
DegreeWorks
Your Guide to Degree Completion
The DegreeWorks audit worksheet is a web-based
tool that provides real-time advice for degree
progression.
DegreeWorks is designed to aid and facilitate
academic advising, but it is not intended to replace
advising sessions.
DegreeWorks
DegreeWorks uses the student’s catalog year and
associated degree requirements to produce a
degree audit worksheet. DegreeWorks data is
updated nightly. Any modifications to student data,
such as a change in registration, change of major,
and change of grades, will be reflected within 24
hours.
DegreeWorks
 A DegreeWorks audit is available for students on
curriculum sheets dated fall 2010 or later. That is,
the student’s catalog year for the major must be
2010-2011 or later.
 A student on a curriculum prior to fall 2010 can use
the What-If function of the DegreeWorks degree
audit. However, the audit will be based on degree
requirements for the current academic year.

 Any course work taken on the quarter system will
not be applied by DegreeWorks. If you have
quarter work, please see your advisor for
information about outstanding degree requirements.
 A complete DegreeWorks audit may not be
available for students who transferred to GSW prior
to fall 2014. If you fall into this category, please refer
to the transfer evaluation mailed at the time of your
acceptance or see your advisor to determine
application of transferred courses.
