Audits

Degree Audits are easy to access and important to review each semester to ensure you are on track for graduation. If you are interested in a different major, you can now view and print a "What If" audit by following the same steps as accessing your audit.

Reading the Degree Audit can be confusing. To help you better understand how to read your audit, view this online "Degree Audit Training Manual" to gain more understanding of your audit and thus will help you stay on track to graduation.

Majors and Minors

Major and Minor information should be kept up-to-date so that during your advising appointment, your completed courses will reflect on your audit showing what courses you have left to take.

Undecided in a major, have at least 30 completed hours and are in the College of Arts & Sciences, you are required to meet with Mr. Adam Moore in the College of Arts & Sciences Advising (CASA) office before registering for classes. If you are undecided in a major, please email Mr. Adam Moore to schedule an advising appointment today. If you have less than 30 hours, please contact the Academic Advisement office.

Career Counseling offers free, one-on-one sessions for students who need assistance in choosing a major. Students can request an appointment by visiting the Career Counseling's office in Sid Richardson, Room 132, by calling 254-710-8434 or completing the online Appointment Request Form.

Changing your Major and/or Minor - If you do choose to change your Major, your assigned advising may change. If you have more than 30 completed hours and are in the College of Arts & Sciences, to change your Major and/or Minor, you will need to complete the Data Form online, making sure to enter your concentration if applicable (especially for BIO and JOU majors). Please allow 24 hours for changes to take effect. If you have less than 30 hours and need to change your major, please contact the Academic Advisement office.

Permits and Waivers

Closed Class Permits/Pre-requisite Waivers are not issued through CASA and are solely at the discretion of the department. If you must register for a course that is closed or you have been advised to take a course requiring a pre-requisite that you do not have, contact that department prior to registration. The department will need your student ID # and section # of the course if they choose to issue the permit or waiver.

Registration

Ensure that you are ready to register for classes - Most sophomores in the College of Arts & Sciences are required to meet with an academic advisor before they will be cleared to register for the following semester's courses. Only completed hours, not hours currently in progress, are used to determine a student's classification. If you are a sophomore, you will have completed between 30-59 hours.
