CARES Report: Your Academic Road Map

EKU's degree audit system is known as the CARES Report (CARES stands for Colonel's Advising & Registration Equals Success). This report shows where you've been, where you are and where you need to go in terms of course work.

Various CARES Report options serve the following purposes:

Shows the distribution of course requirements (both completed and unfulfilled) for your current major;
"WHAT IF" CARES simulates how requirements will re-distribute if you choose a different major;
Lists the contact information for your assigned academic advisor (all report options);
If you will attend another college over the summer, find course equivalents to EKU courses by using the Summer School Course Transfer (SSCT) option.

When you change your major, your CARES changes to show how your classes distribute based on the requirements of your new major. Not only that, but you can create a "What If" CARES to simulate your course re-distribution if you were to change your major. Your CARES also tells you who your academic advisor is and how to reach that person.

NOTE: CARES are only available for currently admitted students. Students, new to EKU, get their first CARES Report when they attend orientation sessions. Transfer students who are unable to attend orientation sessions will receive instructions from the Transfer Coordinator once all admissions and transfer course work has been processed.
