The Degree Tracking Center

The Degree Tracking Center

 

A useful tool found in your myLakeland account is The Degree Tracking Center. With it, you can find useful information about classes you’ve already taken, classes you need to complete your degree and even what classes you would need if you changed your major. While no app can replace a face-to-face meeting with a counselor, the Degree Tracking Center can help you plan for upcoming classes between appointments.

Finding the Degree Tracking Center

 

Begin by logging in to your myLakeland account.

Click the "Student" tab on the side bar on the left, then click Degree Tracker.

A new tab opens and after a few moments your information will appear.

Comparing Majors

It is not uncommon for students to consider changing their major while attending college. The Degree Tracking Center in your myLakeland account makes comparing majors easy. See how courses you’ve already completed fit the requirements for other degrees or certificates.

 

From the Degree Tracking Center summary page, click the What-If tab.

The What-If tab link

In the tab that opens, you can select from the degree and certificate programs offered at Lakeland.

If you have been a student at Lakeland for longer than two years, you must use the current "Catalog Year." If you have been enrolled for less than two years, you may use the catalog from the year you registered.
