Frequently Asked Questions

The educational record of the student, known as the transcript, includes the course and class information along with grading information for each term. This data is used to provide academic departments with information to advise students on degree requirements using the degree-audit system PeopleSoft, as well as to advise them on academic standing status and enrollment verifications for on- and off-campus affiliates.

The Office of the University Registrar produces the Schedule of Classes and both Graduate and Undergraduate catalogs. The staff of the office is responsible for adhering to and communicating academic policy to the campus-wide community as set forth by the Office of Academic Affairs and Council of Deans.
