CyberOrient@JSU  The Degree Evaluation and the Masters' Degree Plan


  • The "Degree Evaluation" found under the Advisor Menu in JSU Paws will replace "Form I: The Degree Plan" for the Division of Graduate Studies. A "Degree Evaluation" must be attached to the "Application for Graduate Degree Candidacy".
  • A Graduate Degree Plan MUST be completed within the FIRST MONTH of enrollment in a degree program.  This plan must be made with the advice and concurrence of the major advisor and the graduate committee.  Only courses appearing on the approved program will be counted toward fulfilling degree requirements.  Changes in the program may be made, using standard change forms, with the approval of the same persons who approved the original program (or their appropriate successors).
