  6. Why use a Planning Guide? • Instead of the CEG? • The planning guide automatically finds the equivalency rule for the correct year/term. • The planning guide uses live data – the historical CEG pages are not refreshed regularly. • The planning guide shows how a course will transfer AND APPLY to degree requirements! • Go to CAS!

Efficient use of Planning Guides • For advisors? • Create a CAS account to store cross-reference guides for programs you advise towards • Be familiar enough with the process of generating guides so that you can help students to learn • For students? • Ask students to create a guide before they meet with you – then use the guide to aid discussion • Go to CAS!
