Advisors and advisees have access to an online degree audit through GUS.
- Select Advise an Individual Student or Advisement Menu
- Enter student's name or PSU ID number
- Select Degree Audit (either with current degree or modified depending on your needs)
The degree audit is a useful tool in selecting coursework appropriate to the degree the student is seeking. It is not guaranteed to be correct, although is accurate for most students. (When a student has successfully completed 85 credit hours, he/she should apply for an "official degree audit" through the degree checking office in 102 Russ Hall or online at a link provided in the student's degree audit on GUS.)
Information available in the online degree audit:
- Advisor's name
- Catalog assigned
- Degree
- Major
- Minor
- Current enrollment (if any)
- Writing to Learn status
- Summary of hours and grade points (completed and needed)
- Grade point average (cumulative and in major)
- Course work to be completed (assumes that student will successfully complete courses currently enrolled in at PSU)
- Hours needed to complete upper division requirements
- Total hours needed to graduate
Modified Degree Audit - The "What If" Option
The modified degree audit allows the advisor and advisee to determine how previously completed coursework would fit into a different major, change in emphasis area, or addition or deletion of a minor.
