What-If Audits and Planned Courses

Your roadmap to graduate starts here! Check out myAudit by logging in to Carleton360 from the Current Students website and selecting “myAudit” from the important links menu. 'What-If' audits allow you to explore different program elements (minors, majors) to see how your current and previously completed courses fit the requirements for those programs. Try it out before you officially make a change to your program. If you like the results, you can submit an application to change your program elements (COPE) in Carleton Central (log in through Carleton360).  

Please visit the Academic Advising Centre website for more information on planned courses.
