2. As an advisor, where can I access student degree progress reports?
• Web Operator: https://hydra.cusys.edu/pinnacle/cgi-bin/sisget.cgi/bd/awosgnon/
• Student Information System (SIS): screens 681 or 682
  
3. If a student experiences problems with his/her degree audit report, or printing them from PLUS, should we send the students to the Registrar's office?
• No, the Degree Audit unit of the registrar's office serves as a reference to advisors, not students.  Always refer students to their primary advisor.  If the advisor spots a problem, the advisor should contact the Degree Audit representative within their school or college.
  
4. Should a student use his degree progress report to plan his course schedule for the upcoming term?
• No. Degree progress reports should be used in conjunction with an academic advisor. Please keep in mind that a degree progress report is an advising tool and is in no way meant to take the place of an advisor. Because there are exceptions in many degree programs, it's a good idea to see an advisor on a regular basis.
