My Banner: A running account of grades and academic progress through a student’s degree program is available online at www.gvsu.edu under “Current Students” then “My Banner.” A Degree Evaluation report shows the requirements for a specific degree and details a student’s progress towards his/her degree. It should be consulted by a student with his/her faculty advisor each semester as decisions are made for fulfilling requirements and choosing electives. The report lists courses completed and requirements still outstanding. The Degree Evaluation is the official university record on a student’s eligibility for graduation and students are responsible for knowing its contents. Any discrepancies or questions should be discussed with the student’s advisor.

Annual Class Schedule: A schedule listing courses, including course number, code number, time, place, and instructor, is available online at www.gvsu.edu/schedule by the end of February for the following academic year. Working from this schedule and in consultation with an advisor, students are able to prepare academic plans for each new semester.
