Use your Academic Requirements Report (ARR) to track your units!

• Once the report loads, scroll down to the Unit Requirements Summary.

• The unit summary will show your progress towards meeting the 120 units needed for graduation. The taken number will include any in-progress units as well as completed units, AP, IB, and community college credit. Courses numbered below 100 do not count towards the 120 units. Please note that any waitlisted courses will not be counted in your taken units until you are fully enrolled.
• To calculate elective units, take the number of units needed towards the 120 and subtract any remaining major and GE units. If one of your major courses also covers a GE requirement, you will only count the units once.
  • Example:  75 units needed - 6 GE units & 60 major units remaining = 9 elective units still needed.

We recommend double-checking your unit calculations with an advisor!

Use your Academic Requirements Report (ARR) to check where your courses are counting!

• Once you are in Student Center, select "Academic Requirements" from the drop-down menu, and click the arrows to load.
• Once the report loads, click expand all.
• Scroll down to the GE area that you think the course covers.
  • If the course is not in the GE area, the course is not satisfying the requirement.
  • If the course is listed on the schedule of classes as the area you wanted, but not reflected on your ARR, please see your CHHS advisor during drop-in advising.  
    • Remember, GE courses cannot double count in two GE Areas!
      • Example: NUTR 132 is a B2 or E course; it cannot cover both requirements. If the course is in B2 on your ARR, but you want it in area E, we can fix it!
• You can search for GE courses by category via the .
• Note that some GE courses need to be lower division and some need to be upper division, please view requirements here.

Yes! The university only offers a commencement ceremony in spring semesters, so all students who want to participate in the ceremony can do so in spring. If you are finishing courses in summer or fall, do not apply for spring graduation.
