Step 2: Review your GPAS
Students may review their program requirements by accessing the “Plan by My Requirements” tab under the University of Minnesota Coursework tab. From this tab, students may review completed and remaining requirements.
Students who have submitted petitions and received approval notices, completed equivalency exams, transferred credits, or taken elective courses not currently listed will view these courses in the “Courses Not Allocated” at the bottom of the page.
Graduate Program Coordinators are responsible for assigning courses to meet the proper requirements. Any questions about courses that are not allocated may be direct to epichstu@umn.edu.
Minors - Confirm your sub-plans:
Students who are completing minors will need to have declared a minor to their sub-plans in order for the minor to be processed with the degree conferral. If a minor has been declared, students will need to submit their GPAS for the minor by changing the program plan to the designated minor, and submitting in GPAS
Students may declare minors at “https://onestop.umn.edu/add-or-remove-graduate-minor”.
