Helpful Hints
Academic Reporting Center

       

I need a list of students participating in commencement:

Click here - select '2012-13 List of Students.'  The Excel file has a sheet for each academic department.

 

I need information on grading for my academic department:

Click here - click on the 'Department' header to filter by department and then view the two reporting categories 'Midterm Grade Details by Term' and 'Final Grade Details by Term.'

 

I need to verify that students registered for a course have completed the prerequisites that were in-progress at the time of registration:

Click here - select the 'Registration Overrides' for the term(s) you need.  The prerequisite error message for each student registration is included as well as transcript history for any courses that have been completed with a grade of C- or less.

  

I need a list of majors / minors / students in my academic department:

Click here - includes directions for how to run a self-service Cognos report with that information.
