Creating and Updating Your Academic Plan

My Degrees

MyDegrees can help you audit your progress towards graduation and plan what courses to take in future terms. Using the Planner tool on MyDegrees can help you identify a realistic graduation term and check for any missing requirements using the audit feature.

Schedule a meeting with one of our advisors to make or change plans and review your progress towards your degree or certificate completion!

MIME Moveable Flowcharts & Electives

In addition to your My Degrees planner, MIME students can also utilize our moveable degree plan flowcharts as a planning tool. Flowcharts indicate Course Names/Numbers, Credit Hours, Required Prerequisites, as well as which terms these classes are historically offered.

Academic Expectations

Minimum GPA requirement: In an effort to help students make continued progress towards their degree, the Academic Progression Model (APM) outlines college-specific standards, applying to all students in the College of Engineering. In short, students are required to maintain a 2.5 OSU GPA and complete 65% of their attempted credits. 

COE Academic Status: Students who do not meet the minimum GPA and completion rates for a term (or multiple terms), will be informed of a change in their College of Engineering status. This is different from OSU’s Academic Standing (which is based on the university-level regulations).

If you think you might not meet the APM requirements with the College of Engineering or you have been informed that you are now on Warning, Probation or Suspension, please reach out to your advisor. Note: Suspended students will need to Petition for Reinstatement to their Engineering major.

All College of Engineering students must obtain a C or better in all of their major coursework, or the course will be considered incomplete. Some Core Ed courses will be considered passing with a D- or better. Due to ABET accreditation, course prerequisites are strictly enforced, especially MIME capstone prerequisites. A minimum grade of C is needed to fulfill most prerequisite requirements.

S/U-ing courses: Students may choose to S/U any Core Ed course, but students will not be able to S/U any COE support, major-specific, or technical/restrictive elective courses for credit towards their degree.
