Degree Audits: Curriculum Audit Tracking System (CATS)

The Registrar's CATS Instructions

After much preparation and review, the Arts and Sciences is pleased to announce the implementation of the Curriculum Audit Tracking System (CATS).

Please access and review your CATS report through your student information log in on the Registrar's web site.

Requirements
  • Please pay great attention to the sections that are not completed and highlighted in red. All of these outstanding sections MUST be completed in order to receive your degree. Feel free to view the completed sections of the audit, but they are considered satisfied.
  • If there are outstanding requirements within the degree audit that you thought were otherwise already completed DO NOT PANIC! This audit takes into account the direct rules of the Catalogue and does not include exceptions that may have been made.
Exceptions

If you do indeed have an exception that was approved by the chair or designate please contact Mark Hall through email at Mark.Hall@uvm.edu. Please be specific in the nature of the exception, your student info, and who approved the substitution/exception.

Record Errors

The CATS report will not be accurate if your academic record is not correct on the system. Please review your online transcript and make sure Major(s)/Minor(s)/Degree are all up to date. Make appropriate changes through the online declaration page. (CAS Major/Minor/Degree Declaration)

Future Semesters

CATS includes all courses that you are enrolled in, which may include the current semester and future semesters; (i.e. Fall 2006 and Spring 2007). The system assumes that you will successfully complete the courses and will use them to fulfill requirements. If you change any present/future schedule in the slightest (i.e. add/drop, fail or withdraw from a course) it will affect the audit. After any changes, please review your audit again!

Transfer Credit

CATS can't include courses that are not on your record, so please plan accordingly and receive prior approval for transfer credit to see how it will fit into your degree program. In addition, once the courses are completed, have an official transcript sent to Transfer Affairs so these hours may be included in your audit.
