The Office of the Registrar is pleased to announce the release of DegreeWorks! DegreeWorks is a web-based tool to help students and advisors monitor a student's progress toward degree completion.
DegreeWorks combines the University of Georgia’s degree requirements and the coursework completed into an easy-to-read worksheet that helps see how courses completed count toward degree requirements, and that helps to see what courses and requirements still need to be completed. This system is designed to aid and facilitate academic advising, but is not intended to replace face-to-face advising sessions. DegreeWorks may be accessed at https://degreeworks.uga.edu.
As of July 3, 2012, DegreeWorks is available to all undergraduate students who have no quarter system courses. All those with any quarter system courses should contact their advisor for assistance.
All students will continue to meet with their academic advisor concerning degree progression.
The degree compliance audits produced by DegreeWorks are dependent on a student’s major/concentration. Data is extracted from the Student Information System into DegreeWorks on a nightly basis. Any change to the student's record in the Student Information System will not be reflected in DegreeWorks until the next day.
Students who have not specified a major must use the “What-If option” and select an anticipated major from the drop-down list to view a full degree audit.
