Degree Audit FAQ:

Will my credits earned from other schools be displayed?

Degree Audit only displays transferred-in credits that have been officially evaluated and approved by the Credit Evaluator May 2010 forward. Students who have registered for classes may submit a request form for an Official Credit Evaluation. Once your transcript(s) have been evaluated, the accepted coursework will be displayed. Degree audit is an advising tool and cannot be substituted as an official transcript evaluation. Official transcript evaluations are on file with Student Services.

Important Note: An unofficial review of your credits with an advisor does not qualify as an officially submitted request. You still need to complete the official process with Evaluations for courses to be displayed in Degree Audit.

Courses that are transferred to your degree at Peninsula College (PC) are denoted by a code “TR” in the degree audit page. Transferred-in courses are converted to their PC equivalent courses in the degree audit page. Courses that do not have a direct equivalency will be shown as ENGL 900, MATH 900, BIOL 900, etc. and will be accepted to their applicable distribution or area of your primary degree or certificate.  Note: Credits earned prior to1986 may not apply correctly to the audit.

Students must meet the graduation residency requirement.  Transfer in credit will be accepted and applied to your primary degree only. If you change degrees, you need to submit another request to Student Services to re-evaluate your credits according to the requirements of the degree you select. These credits may not be reflected in degree audit. Contact Student Services for a copy of your official transcript evaluation.

Can I view my PC course history without linking to a degree or certificate?

Yes. In the drop down menu next to “Select a degree” in the Degree Audit page, scroll down to the end and select "ZZZ” Course History.

Can I view my PC math and English placement test scores?

Degree Audit displays your Compass or Asset assessment scores. Contact your advisor for your placement.

Are substituted courses for professional/technical programs displayed?

Degree Audit only displays the approved substituted course that the program advisor of the degree or certificate approves and officially submits to Student Services with a Request for Degree Requirement Substitution Form. Substituted courses are denoted by “SB”. For more details, contact Student Services.

Are there limitations to what Degree Audit can do? 

• Split credits – Degree Audit does not use partial credits for a degree requirement that has maximum credit limitation. Such as the rules of three maximum credits for activity PE classes and five maximum credits for performance/studio art classes in Humanities distribution for the AA degree.
  
• Semester credits – Semester credits transferred from other colleges are multiplied by 1.5 converting them to quarter credits. For example, 3.0 semester credits is converted to 4.5 quarter credits. Degree Audit will not check you off for completing a requirement that has a minimum credit rule because of the 0.5 credit difference.
  
• Old Credits- Credits earned prior to1986 may not apply correctly to the audit.
