Overview
Degree Planner is a tool for advisors to help students evaluate options and plan a clear path to graduation. Degree Planner, part of PeopleSoft/HighPoint Campus Experience (CX), provides a variety of benefits not previously available to students and advisors:
- Shows the courses a student should take to graduate and indicates the sequence in which to take them using a clear, visual map
- Offers expanded, flexible “what if” scenarios that show impact on graduation, including adjusting credit load, changes to or single/dual majors, study abroad, and more
- Identifies students who are off plan and may need degree planning assistance
- Improves on-time graduation results and provides improved data to help with department programming
