Degree Audits

We love DW! 

DW is short for Degree Works.  Students who are using Degree Works love it and we think you will too.  

Degree Works audits are designed to assist you with planning and tracking your progress toward graduation by comparing your academic record against the requirements for your degree. Your completed FIT courses, transfer credit, and in-progress courses are included in your degree audit. 

Degree audits can be accessed in MyFIT.

Understanding Degree Works Audits

• The audit is divided into blocks listing requirements and conditions necessary for completion of a degree program.
  
  
  • Completed courses/requirements are indicated by a green check mark. 
                  
  • In progress courses/requirements are indicated by a blue half circle. 
                  
  • Missing courses/requirements are indicated by an open red circle.
    
    
• The Excess Courses Not Applied to this Degree block lists elective courses that do not apply to your major requirements.
  
  
• The Insufficient Grades block lists courses that do not apply to degree requirements because the courses do not have passing grades.
  
  
• If you hover over any course number with your mouse, the name and credit hours for the course will display. 
  
  
• The @ symbol is a wild card in Degree Works. It allows you many choices in a given subject area. For example, if the @ sign appears after a subject prefix i.e., HA@, it means that you can take any History of Art course for the requirement.
  
  
• Degree Works is updated every 15 minutes.  Any changes made (e.g., grade changes or classes added/dropped) may not appear until you wait 15 minutes, and log back into Degree Works.
  
  
• After registering for your final semester, check your degree audit to confirm you are registered for all of
  the degree requirements.   When the only missing requirement/red circle under the heading of your degree
  program (Degree in ---) is the Graduation Application, then it is time to apply for graduation. 

Degree Audit Help

A Degree Works guide is available under the Degree Works link in myFIT.  You will need to use your FIT login to access the guide. 

If you are in an undergraduate program and you have additional questions about your degree audit, contact the Registrar's Office at [email protected].  

If you are a student in a graduate program, contact your major department about your degree audit.

Although every effort is made to ensure the information on the degree audit is correct, it is your responsibility to review the audit and confirm its accuracy, successfully complete in-progress courses, and register for the proper sequence of courses to satisfy degree requirements.

Note: A degree audit is not an official transcript.
