Kent State University uses a Web-based automated degree audit system, Kent Academic Progress System (KAPS), to assist students in monitoring timely progress toward completion of their degree requirements. The KAPS report reflects progress toward completion of degree requirements in the students’ officially declared program by comparing their coursework with the program requirements.

A KAPS report is designed to assist students in planning their academic program by:

1. Allowing students to view all of their Kent State University courses (completed, in-progress and future term courses) and any courses transferred to Kent from another institution.
2. Allowing students to display a KAPS report for their declared major and/or majors they are interested in (called a “what if” report) on demand.
3. Allowing students to put “planned courses” in their KAPS Course Cart, which can be used in their interactive audit to map out courses that are needed for degree progress and to assist departments offering the courses to know what courses need to be offered in future planning.

Students may view their KAPS report through FlashLine, which is accessible at www.kent.edu.

Final certification of the completion of students’ degree requirements rests with their college or school. Student should contact their college, school or Regional Campus office with any questions or concerns.
