What-If

Thinking about adding or changing a major? The "What-If" analysis offers you an opportunity to view how proposed changes can affect your path toward graduation in real-time before you make them offcial. The "What-If" function will take your entire course history and apply it to the audit with the newly selected changes.

Plans
