Introducing DegreeWorks!   

DegreeWorks is a highly intuitive and user-friendly degree audit tool for students and their advisors, providing essential and timely information to help keep students on track to complete their degree. 

NOTE: the DegreeWorks system contains audit information for students in the 2020-2021 catalog forward. Students in earlier catalogs should continue to use the degree evaluation program available in RAIL (although they can certainly make use of the DegreeWorks What-If functionality to explore programs in the more recent catalogs).
