Overview
The Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS) produces a report that reflects academic progress toward completion of your declared or proposed major as well as progress toward an undergraduate degree. DARS shows how your transfer courses, current University of Washington courses and in-progress courses apply toward degree requirements. A Degree Audit is an internal document used as a tool to assist you and your adviser in planning your future coursework. Note: A Degree Audit is not an official certification of your academic record. Note: Degree Audits are a measure of academic progress at the time they are submitted, to reflect new credit or changes in grading please re-submit your degree audit.
