CAPP Degree Checks

• Definition of and more information about a "CAPP Degree Check":

  CAPP is a degree progress report/advising support system that matches students' completed and current UW course work (and any transfer courses they might have) with their degree requirements to determine their progress toward earning their degree. CAPP is available to students and faculty advisors through WyoWeb. Students should refer to the UW Class Schedule for additional information.

• Are copies of CAPP Degree Checks sent to students in the mail?

  Students do not receive a hard copy of their CAPP compliance in the mail, but can run a CAPP compliance through WyoWeb.

• Students' responsibility: notification of anticipated graduation

  Students must notify the Office of the Registrar in writing of their anticipated graduation date. The form is accessed through the Registrar's Web site and should be submitted at least one semester prior to anticipating graduation. Students need to complete a new form if their anticipated graduation date changes.

• Information specific to the School of Nursing with regards to CAPP Degree Checks

  Students should be aware that the copy which they view/print out may not be 100% accurate. Clearing up discrepancies with regards to programming issues, general transfer credits, etc. is an ongoing process for the school of nursing office. Questions/concerns, please contact the RN/BSN Completion Office at (307) 766-3907 or RN.BSN@uwyo.edu.
