Academic Plan

Step 1: Open Your Academic Requirements

Go to Towson Online Services, click on Self Service, and then Student Center. On the left hand side, next to your schedule, select Academic Requirements from the drop-down menu.

Step 2: Write Down All Non-Completed Courses

Using your Academic Requirements, write down all required and Gen Ed/University Core courses that you have not completed.

Step 3: Check Your Prerequisites

Using the CBE Prerequisite Checking Guide (PDF) write down the prerequisites for the courses you have not completed. Check to see if you have completed the prerequisites; if so, cross them off. If not, this will aid you in deciding which courses need to be completed first.

Step 4: Create an Academic Plan

Using the spreadsheet below, create an academic plan with the courses you need to complete in order to graduate. Keep in mind your prerequisites.

• Click on the spreadsheet to open it in Microsoft Excel or save it to your computer.
• After the speadsheet is open in Excel, input the total earned units up to today.
• Input the number of units you are currently enrolled in.
• Fill in the remaining schedule by term.
• Make sure you have a minimum of 120 credits.
• When you’re done, save your file and attach the file in an email to your adviser.
