Academic Requirement Report
The Academic Requirement Report (ARR) is a report and graduation evaluation tool, used to track the completion of all degree requirements in one document. Students can also access notes and reminders from their academic advisor and graduation auditors from this report.
Students should run this report often to monitor completion of all graduation requirements.
What's included
- All courses completed at CSUSM
- Courses in-progress
- All courses or test credit completed in transfer (see Transfer Credit page for more details)
- Any changes and new information
- After enrollment
- After grades are posted
- After you declare or change your major or minor
- After you submit transcripts with transfer coursework
Degree Requirements
Your ARR breaks down each graduation requirement, divided into 3 categories:
- University (or general degree) requirements (e.g. 2.0 GPA, 120 units, residence, Diversity & Equity)
- General education requirements (e.g. lower division area A-E and upper division GE)
- Major and/or minor requirements (e.g lower division major prep, upper division major courses)
In this report you can see how your coursework (including transfer and test credit) has satisfied graduation requirements.

The ARR and Degree Planner are different, but both helpful tools. Your Degree Planner assists with course planning, and your ARR assists with ensuring completion of all degree requirements, including units, GPA, etc.
