Your APAS Report

APAS (Academic Progress Auditing System) produces a report, or degree audit, that reflects your progress toward completion of an undergraduate degree in your declared or proposed major. The APAS report shows how your University of Minnesota courses, transfer courses, and courses in progress all apply to your degree requirements. It should be used as a tool to assist you and your adviser in planning your future coursework.

Why Use APAS?

• Your APAS report lists your degree requirements, summarizes your progress to date, and explains what you will need to do to complete your declared degree program.
• APAS draws its information from your on-line student record; therefore, each time the report is processed you can be assured that it contains the most up-to-date information.
• By summarizing the courses from which you can choose to complete your degree requirements, APAS ensures that you stay on track and not take unnecessary courses.
• APAS facilitates advising, allowing less time spent reviewing past course work and more time helping you plan for the future.

APAS currently provides you and your adviser with information on Liberal Education and major requirements and electives. A separate degree audit has been created for each degree program. Students with double majors should receive two distinct degree audits.

How to Read the PDF version of Your APAS Report

APAS takes your Liberal Education and major requirements and electives and breaks them into requirement "blocks." Within each requirement block there is a set of sub-requirements.

• If you glance at your degree audit, you will note there will be an "OK" or "NO" or "IP" to the left of each requirement and a "+" or "-" by each sub-requirement. If the sub-requirement has not been met (-), the requirement will read "NO."

• When there is a course-specific requirement, a "Select From" list of appropriate courses will be printed:

  NO MECHANICAL ENGINEERING LABS

  + 1) BASIC MEASUREMENT LAB SP01 1ME 3031 4.0 B

  - 2) SENIOR LABS - 4 CREDITS OF SENIOR LAB REQUIRED
  NEEDS: 4.0 CREDITS
  SELECT FROM: 1ME 4131 ,4133 ,4231 ,4331 ,4431 ,5133 , 5231 ,4232

• The APAS report shows a requirement as completed (OK) when all of its sub-requirements have been satisfied:

  OK LOWER DIVISION ENGINEERING SCIENCE COMPLETE

  + 1) STATICS, DEFORMABLE BODY MECHANICS AND DYNAMICS
  SP99 1AEM 2012 2.6 A- SP99 1AEM 3031 2.6 B+

  + 2) HEAT TRANSFER AND FLUID FLOW
  SP01 1ME 3322 4.0 B+

• An "In Progress" course is one for which you have not yet received a final grade. This includes courses in which you are currently enrolled (which are reported on the audit with a grade of IP):

  IP BASIC ENGINEERING PROGRAM COMPLETE

  + 1) MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SYSTEMS AND DESIGN
  F 00 1ME 3221 4.0 A SP01 1ME 3281 4.0 A
  S101 1ME 3222 4.0 A

  + 2) THERMODYNAMICS
  F 00 1ME 3321 4.0 A

  + 3) SENIOR DESIGN
  F 01 1ME 4054W 4.0 IP

  + 4) STATISTICS, QUALITY AND RELIABILITY
  F 00 1IE 4521 4.0 A-

• When you have completed all of your requirements you should see this statement at the top of your APAS report:
