Students from outside of the College of Arts & Sciences, who are enrolled in an Art + Design dual major or minor program, should seek advising from their home college or department.

MyPaws (DARS) Degree Audit

The MyPaws (DARS) Degree Audit is a very useful tool to help students maintain progress in their major or minor. Students can find their audit through MyNeu and click on the �Self-Service� tab. The academic information provided on the Degree Audit is based on the Catalogue Year the student entered Northeastern University. The single catalog year refers to an entire academic year. For example, students entering during the academic year 2005-2006 have a catalog year of 2006.

The Degree audit is the university�s official advising tool. It has replaced all other documents regarding degree progress and transfer credit evaluations for incoming students. For questions regarding your Degree Audit, you contact your Academic Advisor at College of Arts and Sciences or Faculty Advisor.

In addition to your Degree Audit, you may refer to the official NU Course Catalogues for Undergraduate Programs. Be sure to check your academic requirements based on your NU Entrance Date. For example, if a student entered NU in Spring 2006, he or she must refer to 2005-2006 Course Catalogue for academic requirements.
