Degree Audit Errors

Degree audits of History majors often have courses miscategorized within the major requirements ā€“ or not categorized at all. Here are a couple of common situations:

  • The US history requirement. Students who scored 4 or 5 in APUSH may take 2 US history electives () instead of the US History survey (HIST 2401 & 2402) but the degree audit will usually not recognize the 2 US history electives as fulfilling the US history requirement.
  • 4000-level (aka upper-division) electives. Often these are not counted and drop to the bottom of the audit in the ā€œcourses not matched to requirementsā€ section.

If you see errors on your degree audit, fill out the Degree Audit Course Substitution and Waiver FormĀ on the Office of Student Services site.

For your own planning purposes, itā€™s best to keep track of the courses you are taking using the History Requirements Worksheet.
