Find out what classes you need to graduate!

Did you know that you have access 24/7 to a tool that will help you figure out exactly which classes you need to complete your degree program and graduate?

It's called your Academic Evaluation and you can check your progress any time on MyAACC following these step-by-step instructions:


If you have any developmental requirements (reading, writing & math), you'll want to complete those ASAP!  If you see "Required" next to any of these courses, you'll need to get started with those. Contact me if you're not sure where to start with your developmental coursework.

If a credit course requirement has been completed, you will see the semester, the grade, and the number of credits for that course.  If you still need to complete a course, it will indicate "1 course needed."  

A course you are taking or one for which you are registered, will be noted by (IP) for "in progress."

Steps for Success:
  1. Evaluate your program progress to create a list of the courses you still need to graduate.
  2. Determine which classes to take in Winter & Spring
  3. Register for Classes (Here are instructions for how to get yourself registered)
Want some help with this process?  E-mail janagiel@aacc.edu from your MyAACC email address with a list of courses you're planning to take for next semester.  I'll check your options to make sure you're on the right track!

Not ready to do this on your own, schedule an advising appointment as soon as possible.  There are just a few appointments left before winter break!

How will you spend the winter break?

  1. Relax and Be Happy!
    You've worked hard this semester, so be sure to take some time to relax!  Take a break and enjoy some special time with family, friends and loved ones this holiday season.  Do something that makes you happy!
  2. Take a Winter Class
    It's not too late to register for an online, in-person or hybrid class in December or January.  Keep in mind that the classes are accelerated so they move pretty quickly. Not sure what classes fit your degree program?  Ask me!  For a list of winter classes, visit bit.ly/1bLcVLK  
  3. Get Registered for Spring Semester
    Before you settle into winter vacation, be sure to register for your Spring courses.  Sections are filling up fast, so don't wait until January to register.  
  4. Meet with your Advisor
    I am here to help!  Want to plan for winter and spring?  Ready to start preparing for the transfer process?  Want to develop a plan for graduating?  Click on the link below for my schedule and instructions for scheduling an appointment at the Arnold campus (Student Services Building, Room 200) or for Arundel Mills (Suite 309).

  5. Prepare for and Pass the Praxis
    If you are working on an AAT degree, you'll need to pass the Praxis I.  Winter break is the perfect time to study for the test.  For more information, visit http://www.aacc.edu/teach/praxis.cfm.  You can also take a Praxis preparation class here at AACC this winter term:  EDU 002 (Praxis I: Reading Skills) and EDU 004 (Praxis I: Writing Skills).
