Curriculum Advising and Program Planning (CAPP)

CAPP degree evaluations are not official. Ultimately it is the responsibility of the student to be sure that all his/her degree requirements have been met. Completion of program requirements or graduation is determined only by the Registrar’s Office. CAPP degree evaluation does not take the place of regular Academic Advising. You should work closely with your academic advisor to plan out how you can achieve your academic goals.
