Last updated on Jul 30, 2022


Before you begin

Learn how to review past coursework, including transfer credit and grades earned, and monitor progress toward satisfaction of requirements and degree completion.

To access the Academics Dashboard, select the icon of three lines at the top left of your Workday home page and then select Academics. You may also select Academics from your Quick Tasks or Your Top Apps.


BEFORE AND AFTER REGISTRATION

  • You are responsible for reviewing your records and monitoring your progress towards degree completion
  • We recommend downloading a PDF copy of your Academic Record and Academic Progress Report for each registration cycle

Academic Record

Your Academic Record or Academic History is a comprehensive list of your past coursework, including transfer credit, grades and units earned, and cumulative as well as term GPA.
