Advising Center: Degree Planning

Taking the time to create a progression plan is an important first step on the road to success!  A progression plan is a semester-by-semester outline of the courses  you need to take to reach completion.  This can include mapping out required program prerequisites for admissions to a desired program, outlining the steps to transfer to a 4-year school, or simply outlining courses to reach credential attainment.

Not sure which major or career you want to pursue?  Watch a video reviewing the major and career exploration and planning process:

 

Key considerations when creating a progression plan:

  • Semester course load - How many courses (credit hours) do you want to take each semester? For every credit hour, expect to spend 1 hour in class and two hours doing homework.
  • Outside commitments - Are you working or do you have other family obligations?  You will want to factor in this time commitment to your semester-by-semester plan.
  • Graduation plans - When would you like to graduate with your desired plan? Knowing your end goal can help map out your timeline.
  • Transfer plans - Are you planning to transfer to a 4-year institution or another program?  Knowing the admissions deadlines, criteria, and degree requirements will aid in your progression planning process.

Students should review their Advising Worksheet that can be found in your MyKV Portal.
