Using the Academic Planner
Students can use the Academic Planner tool to plan out their future course enrollments.
In the Planner, students can select the courses they intend to register for, assign them to future semesters, and see whether or not planned courses will complete graduation requirements.
These are the steps to planning out future course enrollments using the Academic Planner and Planner Advisement Report tools:
Adding Courses to Academic Planner
Using the Planner Report
Log in to your Student Administration System account. The Student Administration System will then open to the Student Homepage.
Click on the Academic Progress & Advising tile on the homepage.
Select Advisement Reports from the tile menu.
Select the Run Planner Report button on the Advisement Reports landing page.
After a few moments, the Planner Report will display in a new tab. Unsatisfied requirements will be expanded by default.
The Planner Report is a mirror of the Standard Report, except it also includes Planned Courses (displayed with a blue star).
Scroll through the report and find a requirement listed as Not Satisfied.
Click the View Course List link to view all the courses that fulfill that requirement. In some requirements, the courses that fulfill that requirement may be listed directly in the requirement.
If no courses are listed and no View Course List link is available, use the Using Manage Classes Tile instructions to add courses to your Academic Planner.
Click the Description link for the class you wish to add to your Planner.
The Course Detail page will open. Click Add to Planner to add this class to your Academic Planner.
Repeat steps above until all desired courses have been added to the Planner.
Begin steps to Assign Planned Courses to Future Terms.
Using the Manage Classes Tile
Log in to your Student Administration System account. The Student Administration System will then open to the Student Homepage.
Click on the Manage Classes tile.
You will be directed to the Browse Course Catalog section of the Manage Classes page.
To search for a class, enter a keyword into the Search for Courses field and click enter. Search results will display.
Once you have found the course you wish to add to your planner, click on the course name. You will then be directed to the Course Detail page.
Click Add to Planner in the top right corner.
A green ribbon will display at the top of the page to confirm the course has been added to your planner.

Under Unassigned Courses, your academic planner will display a list of the courses you have not yet assigned to a term (i.e., the courses you just added to your planner).
If you need to remove a course from the planner, click the trash can icon in the Delete column next to the course you wish to remove. A confirmation message will appear at the top of the page.
Check off the class(es) you wish to assign to a term.
Select a term from the Move selected courses to Term drop-down menu.
Click Move.
A confirmation message will appear across the top of the page.
Once all planned courses have been assigned to the appropriate future term, refer to Reviewing the Planner Report to see how planned courses will impact your progress towards graduation requirements.
