What is Student Planning?
 Student Planning is the section within a student’s
online account (Trojan Web Express), which is used
to determine degree progress, plan and schedule
future terms/semesters, and correspond with
advisors.
 It displays and monitors degree information for
each student’s program, such as:
 Required degree coursework by color code
 Overall and Institutional Credits
 Cumulative and Institutional GPA
 Minimum Grade Requirements on specific
courses

The Home tab gives you two navigating options, Student Finance

current schedule, as well as give options to navigate to other
helpful student planning tools.
My Progress
The My Progress tab shows your degree program, cumulative and institutional
GPAs, catalog year, and color coded progress bars. The “Load Sample Course Plan”
allows you to lay a track to see a calendar view of your schedule for the courses you
plan to take for the duration of your academic program (Note: if you have 30 or
more hours of credit, it is not recommended you use this feature). The “View a New
Program” tab allows you to do a fastest path analysis on academic programs if you
are thinking about changing your degree program.
Requirements
This section shows you what courses are required for your academic
program. It uses a color coding system to denote course status.
Green-Completed or In Progress
Yellow-Planned or Fully Planned
Red-Not Started
Blue-Fulfilled
Major Requirements
This section shows what courses are required for your specific
major. The search feature allows you to search for courses within
each section. (Detailed explanation on next slide)
Course Catalog
The search feature directs you to the Course Catalog. You can view
all sections offered for each course, filter the results, as well as add
them to your course plan. You must type the name of the
department, not the abbreviation (ex. Mathematics, not MTH).
