Viewing and Modifying a Plan

This article covers how faculty, staff, and students can view and modify a Titan Degree Plan (TDP) for a student.

NOTE: Faculty and staff need to request access to run TDPs; visit this site to learn more about the Campus Solutions Access Request Form.

The TDP automatically creates a plan for all students with their current major. When a major is changed, a new plan will be created with the new major once the change of major has been processed.

1. Click Plan to access the Titan Degree Planner.

Course numbers in TDP begin with a dash (-) which is automatically added when you look up courses to add to your plan. However, if you backspace in that field it's possible to remove the dash.

Remember to re-add the dash when looking up course numbers if you accidentally remove it!
