Degree Audit

Your DeGRE (Degree and Graduation Requirements Evaluation) audit, which contains your access code number, is mailed to your advisor. (Seniors' DeGRE audits are sent to them directly.) You contact this person to pick up your audit form and access code and to review your course selections for the coming semester.

This document lists all courses that the Registrar is counting towards your requirements for graduation. A completed requirement has *** in front of it. After you have declared a Psychology Major, there should be a separate listing of the major requirements you have satisfied and those which you have not. If you have a question about some requirement that is not marked as completed, you should check with the Registrar's Office. If the question concerns the Psychology Major, you may be referred to the Director of Undergraduate Studies. It is a good idea to straighten out these problems as early as possible.

Your Boston College DeGRE audit will list all courses that BC is counting towards your degree. This document should also indicate whether you are listed as majoring in psychology. If you are listed as a Psychology Major, then your DeGRE audit will indicate which major requirements you have completed, and which you have not, according to the Registrar's records. For example, a course may be listed as something else (perhaps "PS 002 Psych Major Equiv") at the end of the DeGRE audit under the heading "Courses not counted towards the above requirements." Courses do not count as fulfilling major requirements unless they appear under the Psychology Major portion of your DeGRE audit. Someone in the Psychology Department, usually the Director of Undergraduate Studies, needs to fill out a form to inform the Registrar precisely how a particular psychology course you took somewhere else should be counted with respect to your Boston College Psychology Major.
