back up and follow #9 above.
o
In
the first section (see example below),
o Is your Catalog
Term the first term you

education, your major(s) and minor(s) that were in effect when you began at
Hope. If the catalog term is not
accurate, come to the Registrar’s Office, first floor of DeWitt.
o Is your Degree accurate? Hope offers Bachelor of
Arts, Bachelor of Science (for majors in the natural science), Bachelor of
Music and Bachelor of Science in Nursing degrees; requirements are different
for each.

listed as you declared them? If
not, come to the Registrar’s Office, first floor of DeWitt.

your Catalog Term until you apply to graduate. After you apply to graduate,

In
the second section,
o How close are you to completing your
degree? You need at least 126 credits to earn a degree
from Hope. The “Used” column counts the
TOTAL number of credits you have earned (in Hope classes, transfer classes,
language placement, Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams) AS WELL AS the credits you are
currently registered for (even though you won’t earn those credits until you
pass those classes). See the example
below.
o Do you have the required GPA?
To earn a degree, your overall GPA must be at least 2.00 (some majors
require a higher GPA).
o Do we have all the credits you’ve transferred
to Hope or earned via AP or IB exams? These credits count toward
the 126 you need… but the grades you earned do not affect your “Overall
GPA.”

o Have you completed requirements for general education? The next several sections of the degree evaluation involve general education requirements. These requirements are broken into at least 2 and as many as 4 parts (areas) depending on your degree. Each of these general education areas must be marked “MET” at the top of each area for your general education requirements to be completed.
o 
Each
general education requirement has an “Attribute,” a code which you can use to
search the on-line schedule when you select courses.

education requirements have two parts - BABS GENED & DIVERSITY <>

o
Have you completed the requirements for your
declared majors and minors? The
next sections list the requirements of the majors and minors you have
declared. If you have fulfilled
requirements for declared majors and minors, the major or minor area will be
marked “MET.” Check under each area for
a list of requirements—any marked “NO” are not completed. At the end of each area, you’ll see your
major or minor GPA; again, it must be at least 2.00 (some majors require higher
GPA—check with your advisor).
o Check majors and minors carefully.
o If you are planning on teacher
certification, your major and minor should:
·
be an approved composite major for
elementary education (Fine Arts Composite, Language Arts Composite, Science
Composite or Social Studies Composite)
OR
·
Special Education (EI or LD)
OR
·
have “Education” as part of its
description - for example, “English-Elementary Educ” or “English-Secondary
Educ,” rather than simply “English.”
o For some majors (especially in the
natural sciences and music), more than one degree is possible. Is your degree listed correctly? If you have questions, check with your advisor
or the Registrar's Office.
If your major or minor or degree is not listed correctly, come to the
Registrar's Office so we can correct your record. If these are not listed correctly, your
degree evaluation will not be accurate.
o
What classes are put in the “Elective
Course” area? In the elective
course area, you’ll find classes you failed, took pass/fail or withdrew from,
as well as any classes which do not complete requirements for general education
or your declared majors or minors.

requirements or majors/minors, complete the correct form.
