Degree Audit - DegreeWorks
Advising Tool
Students will have access to an unofficial degree audit that lists information regarding their current academic pursuits, including Institutional Requirements, General Education Requirements, Major Requirements (with concentration, emphasis or cognate, if applicable) and Minor Requirements. This dynamic tool reflects all changes to a student's academic record, and is used in determining whether or not a student has successfully completed all graduation requirements. Students and their advisors have access to the student's degree audit via MyCharleston. The link for DegreeWorks is found on your MyCharleston portal under the Academic Services tab. For more information about the DegreeWorks tool, please see the Academic Advising and Planning Center's DegreeWorks page.
Students with continuous enrollment have the option of fulfilling all the graduation requirements from the Undergraduate Catalog under which they entered the College or all the requirements from any subsequent catalog. Students who withdraw and then return to the College must follow the graduation requirements from the Undergraduate Catalog under which they are re-admitted or any subsequent catalog, provided the student maintains continuous enrollment. Students who wish to change their “Catalog Year” on their degree audit within this policy, should contact registrar@cofc.edu.
Exceptions to catalog degree requirements (if applicable) must be sent from the department to the Office of the Registrar. Exceptions must be on file in the Office of the Registrar before they will be added to and reflected in the degree audit. Proper documentation must be received in a timely manner to avoid delays in clearing students for graduation. Please try to have any applicable exceptions sent to our office before the application deadline (Oct. 1 for fall; Feb. 1 for spring).
Students may view or print their degree audit by logging in to their MyCharleston account, choosing "DegreeWorks" (located under "Academic Services") and following the on-screen instructions. New with DegreeWorks is a PDF option which will also allow you to send your degree audit via email if needed. Students must report any problems or discrepancies with their degree audit to the Graduation Area of the Office of the Registrar, and to their advisor. Students are responsible for printing a copy/screenshot of the audit containing the problem in question and making it available to the Registrar's Office for review.
Students who have more than one major and are having a problem viewing or printing one of the major audits are encouraged to come to the Office of the Registrar for assistance.
Please note -- Students and their advisors may use this on-line tool to view a student's progress toward meeting graduation requirements, but it is not an official degree audit. Official final degree audits are only performed by the Office of the Registrar at the time a student applies for graduation.
