Use DegreeWorks, the course catalog, and the course schedule to help you
A friendly reminder that you are responsible for selecting courses for next semester.
Please use all of these resources to make sure that you select courses that are part of your degree and also check that those courses are being taught next semester.
DegreeWorks
Log into your portal account and click the DegreeWorks button. We will use this along with your 4-year plan during your advising appointment.
The course catalog appropriate for your degree
The course schedule for next semester
Check the course schedule to make sure that the courses that you want to take are being taught next semester! Not every course is taught every semester.
You have three options to make sure you are selecting classes that will be taught next semester:
Option 1: Search the course schedule on STAR
Option 2: Search for the course in Schedule Builder.
If you don't see the course on STAR or Schedule Builder, then that course isn't being taught next semester. Pick a different course that helps you meet your degree requirements.
Option 3: Click on the course name in DegreeWorks. A pop up window shows course information and scheduling information.
In DegreeWorks, you should see the upcoming semester along with an update of how many seats are available. If you don't, then that course is not being taught next semester. Pick a different course that helps you meet your degree requirements.
