Welcome, new students; and welcome back, returning students, from the Registrar’s Office!<\/p>\n

In conjunction with our colleagues in Systems Development and Integration (a division of ILS), the Registrar’s Office has been working to bring a new system to Bates to give students and advisers a way to access student progress towards the requirements for graduation. You may remember that there is a “General Education Evaluation” page currently in the Garnet Gateway<\/a>. The new system, which we call “Degree Audit,” will have a much improved look and feel over the old page, making it easier for students and advisers to track progress towards the degree requirements.<\/p>\n

An important change is that for the first time ALL<\/strong> requirements will be presented, including majors and minors. This will help students better understand the “double-dipping” rule and help them plan their curriculum. We hope that by offering a comprehensive look at degree requirements — from the 32 credits to concentrations, majors, PE and everything between — students will have a clearer picture of their current progress.<\/p>\n

This system will live in the Garnet Gateway and will be just a click away anytime. It will update automatically as students register, complete courses, and declare majors, minors and concentrations.<\/p>\n

We would also like to remind students that the registration adjustment period (add\/drop) will open for all students at 7 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 4. Students may add and drop as space allows through Sept. 11, and with instructor permission until the last day to add, Sept. 18.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, we hope everyone has enjoyed a pleasant and relaxing summer break!<\/p>\n
