Following the process outlined below, you will become familiar with your degree requirements at UAlbany, plan your program of study, receive feedback on your plan from your advisor, and register for your first semester of coursework.
Your Educational Plan can only be completed accurately by following these steps.
1. Set up your MyUAlbany account.
2. Learn to read your Transfer Credit Evaluation.
The Transfer Credit Evaluation lists all the courses you’ve taken at previous institutions, and shows how those courses transfer to UAlbany.
|
3. Understand your UAlbany degree requirements using the Degree Audit Report.
The Degree Audit Report (DARS) details your graduation requirements, and shows how your previous coursework will apply to those requirements.
4. Read the Departmental advice for transfer students prepared by your major’s academic department. Consider carefully how this advice applies to you.
If you are an Open major or haven’t yet decided between two majors, read the Open Major advice specially prepared for you. |
5. Using your Degree Audit Report (DARS) create your Educational Plan for completing your degree.
6. Submit your plan through this website for advisor feedback. The advisor will contact you by phone or email within one week.
7. Learn to use the necessary registration tools (Schedule of Classes Search, MyUAlbany registration system.)
8. Upon receipt of advisor feedback and an Advisement Verification Number (AVN), register for appropriate coursework using MyUalbany.
9. You should plan to attend the Transfer Orientation to meet with departmental representatives and participate in an orientation to the department and the major. During orientation you will also obtain your SUNY Card, purchase or order books, register your car, tour campus, and become acquainted with UAlbany facilities, and services.
