The department highly encourages you to meet with your faculty advisor once a semester to make sure your plans for graduation
are fulfilled. When you declare AAAS as a major or minor, you may choose a full time faculty member to be your advisor.
Your advisor will also help you in career planning, graduate school, or further plans of study.
Curriculum, Advising and Program Planning (CAPP)
The Curriculum, Advising, and Program Planning (CAPP) Compliance Report is an advising tool to be used by students and their
advisors throughout students' academic careers at MSCD.
The CAPP Report gives students a detailed view of how their MSCD courses work, and transfer work (if any), applies towards
their degree, by showing which requirements have been met and which have not been met. Students can view / print their CAPP Report
online by using WebCAPP.
Each semester, you should look over a copy of your CAPP Report. You are encouraged to review your CAPP Report before
you register for classes. If you do not have a declared major and minor you can get it from the
Academic Advising Center (CN104). The Academic Advising Center link also has helpful
advising information.
If you are a declared major, the following steps will allow you to view and print your WebCAPP Report:
Login to MetroConnect
Click on the "My Services / Registration" tab in MetroConnect
Click on Main Menu Icon
Click on "Registration, Student Records & Financial Aid"
Click on "Student Records"
Click on "View / Print CAPP Report" and follow the online instructions
Read your report CAREFULLY! Students who are declared African and African American Studies majors or minors should discuss their progress towards
completion of their major (minor) program with their faculty advisor. If you disagree with any areas of the CAPP Report,
discuss this with your advisor. It may be a simple matter of re-assigning a course to meet a particular requirement.
Career Services can help you explore career opportunities in African / African American Studies.
