What-If Analysis

Owned by Kimberly Andrews
Last updated: Jul 25, 2021

You can use the What-If functionality to view your audit for:

  • Proposing change in major,  declaration of a minor or a concentration,  declaring a second major or minor, declaring a dual program, and to see how the proposed changes may affect path toward degree completion.

  • Planning coursework (looking ahead) in your current or proposed curriculum.

NOTE:

  • What-If for proposed curriculum is only available for undergraduate programs. Graduate programs are not included due to the concern of triple counting courses which would be misleading to the student.

  • Undergraduate and Graduate students may use the Look Ahead function to plan courses for their current program.

  • Undergraduate students may also use Look Ahead to plan coursework in a proposed curriculum.


The What-If Analysis tool can be found under the What-If tab to the right of the Academic tab.
