Academic Planning Tools

Here are several tools that can help you with your academic planning

My Academic Plan (plan ahead term-by-term)

This tool helps to map out courses you plan to take in the future. 

 

Do It Yourself (DIY) Degree Check for Students

The Do It Yourself (DIY) Degree Check is a guide. Each student scenario is different (i.e. you may have changed your path a few times with your major, option or specialization), so, only use this to gain a sense of what you still may need to complete or satisfy your degree and program requirements. For more information, please visit the Degree Check Tools page.

 

What Can I Do with My Degree?

Use this tool to research, investigate and discover how you can use your degree-related knowledge, skills and experiences in the workforce.

Academic Skills How-to-Guides

Academic Skills focuses on helping you review and revise the skills you apply to navigating course work. There may be a strategy that you are not currently using that you might find helpful to work through the course content.    

Academic Skills Instructors offer appointments with students which might be another helpful resource to you: https://www.trentu.ca/academicskills/appointments

 

GPA Calculator

Download the GPA Calculator tool to calculate your cumulative average one course at a time.

Another helpful tool is the grade conversion tables provided by OUAC that is used to convert GPAs to a 4.0 scale. OMSAS, OLSAS
