How to Print and Read an Advisement Transcript

Instructions on how an advisor can print a student's advisement transcript are located on http:www.peoplesoft.uconn.edu/training/advise.html . The system also gives you the capability of running a "What-if " advisement transcript for a UConn student who is considering a change of major or a change of Catalog year. 

New students automatically follow the new Catalog requirements. However, all undergraduate students have the option to change from their original requirements and follow the new Catalog. To review this form and use it to request a change:  Catalog Change Form

Grade Point Averages

A cumulative grade point average calculation is given. Some schools/colleges require a minimum cumulative GPA above the minimum 2.0 CGPA required by the University.  Advisors should know if their school or college requires a minimum cumulative GPA.

Credits

All schools/colleges require a minimum number of total units or degree credits for graduation.

Credit Restrictions

Advisors should encourage students to read carefully the course descriptions in the Catalog before they register because some of the course credits may not count toward graduation. 

Course restrictions also apply to independent study courses repeated courses, and prerequisites taken out of sequence. See Undergraduate Catalog: 

1. Independent study, special topics, and variable topics courses
2. Repeating courses
3. Prerequisites taken out of sequence
   
   In credit-restricted courses, the earned credits are reduced on the transcript. However, full credit will be used in the determination of full-time status and in the calculation of grade point averages.

Approved Substitutions / Permissions / Exemptions

When substitutions have been approved, those courses appear on the advisement transcript under the required courses. These are individual substitutions that have been approved in the current major and do
not hold if the student changes schools.
