Degree Planning

Each degree program in this catalog specifies the course requirements necessary to earn a degree. Academic advisors guide students to plan to graduate in four years, registering for 15-16 credits per semester. However, each student should pursue a degree at a pace that maximizes his or her opportunities for long-term success.

Students can view their path toward degree completion through the timeline function in My MU Plan. Meeting regularly with an academic advisor is the best way for students to discuss their courses each semester. Keep in mind the order of the curriculum is important for degree progress and that not every course is offered every semester.

All minor and certificate programs include a list of required courses that fulfill the desired program of study. There may be a recommended or specified sequence of courses. Future program planning with an academic advisor is recommended as not every course is offered every semester.
