Applying for a degree
To be awarded, degree requirements must be completed by the end of the semester.
Auto-Awarding Process
Allan Hancock College has developed an auto-awarding program. If DegreeWorks shows you are at 98% completed with your degree(s), you will receive an email approximately 5-weeks into the semester confirming auto-awarding. This means your degree will be automatically awarded to you without having to apply for your degree.
To be eligible for auto-awarding, you must:
- be currently taking classes at Hancock
- be eligible for degree(s) requirements using the current catalog year
IMPORTANT: If you do not meet the above criteria, you are required to meet with a counselor and apply for your degree(s).
Deadline to Submit an Application for a Degree
If you have transcripts from another college, AP, CLEP, IB, or military credit.
- Submit all official transcripts to our Admissions and Records Office for a course-to-course evaluation.
- Wait for an email verification from the Admissions and Records Office confirming your transcript has been received and evaluated.
- Schedule a counseling appointment for a thorough degree evaluation. A counselor will ensure all applicable external credit be inputted into DegreeWorks.
