    3.4.2 Plan of Study

    The plan of study (POS) provides the list of requirements for completing a degree at UNG. Initially, the plan of study serves as a guide for discussion between the student and academic advisor.  Degree requirements and plans of study can change each academic year to reflect current department and program standards.  The POS version used by students is determined by the first term of enrollment at UNG.  Students may choose to use a future POS version at any time during their academic career.  Students may not use a POS version that was approved and used prior to their enrollment at UNG. Once a student has elected to use a POS from a future academic year, they cannot revert to a previous version. Degree programs are subject to change.  Adjustments may be made to the requirements for the degree regardless of the undergraduate catalog under which the student entered. 

    Students pursuing a baccalaureate degree must have an approved plan of study (POS) on file in the Office of the Registrar prior to earning 90 hours.

    Students seeking an associates degree must have an approved plan of study on file prior to earning 40 hours.

    The approved POS is changed only upon written authorization of the faculty advisor and the head of the department concerned.
