Students who are more actively involved in "managing" their undergraduate program are likely to experience fewer "surprises" (some with unpleasant consequences) during the last semester or two of their undergraduate studies. While some of these "surprises" can be fixed rather easily, others cannot be fixed, which may result in the delay of your graduation. Being familiar with various requirements of your degree will be well worth your time and effort.

You will find a variety of materials available on this Web site. The Online Degree Completion Record is interactive to the extent that calculations (such as grade-point average) and hours completed are updated as you record the appropriate information on the form. You are strongly encouraged to download the appropriate file for your major and year of matriculation and save it on either a floppy disk or the hard drive of your computer. This is easily done by depressing the right mouse button and then clicking on "Save link as." You will have an opportunity to indicate where you want the file saved (A Drive or C Drive). You are also encouraged to update your Online Degree Completion Record with your grades as you complete each semester.

Undergraduate students who regularly track their progress should be able to identify at any given time what courses they have remaining to complete their degrees as well as determine which of the other graduation requirements (GPA, hours completed outside the Spears School of Business (SSB), hours completed in the SSB, hours completed in the major, etc) may have deficiencies. Assuming this level of responsibility will certainly reduce if not totally eliminate any "surprises" during your last year as an undergraduate.
