Students: Advising Degree Progress & What-If Reports

This information covers the Degree Progress and What-If Reports from the student perspective. MyBU Student Degree Progress presents to students the requirements of their Degree Progress Report, including what has or has not been satisfied. The What-If function allows students to review Degree Progress details for alternative programs, plans, or other scenarios.

Introduction

In Degree Progress, students can browse the requirements of their Degree Progress report and see what is satisfied and what is not satisfied (this is similar to the Degree Advice function in the Legacy Student Link). Drilling down to the course lists for requirements, students can view course and section details. From the Degree Progress pages, students are also able to directly enroll in classes or add them to their Schedule Builder and Shopping Cart.

The What-If Report allows for the view of the same information provided with Degree Progress page, but for a different Career/Program/Plan Scenario and/or with additional courses completed. In other words, it’s a tool that generates a hypothetical Degree Progress report if the student were to complete courses or change their Program/Plan.
