What is a Suggested Academic Plan?
Suggested Academic Plans (SAPs) provide the possible order of courses students might follow as they pursue a particular degree. SAPs are proposed schedules only, but they do incorporate prerequisites in proper sequence. Following the SAP closely ensures your progress through the degree program.
Individual students’ schedules might look somewhat different if, in consultation with an academic adviser, the students have created slightly different plans. Again, care should be taken when changing the order of courses, as the SAP takes into account prerequisites and course controls.
Changing the order of an academic plan might be in the student’s best interests, however, should occur with an adviser's guidance.
All Penn State students should consult the University Bulletin and their degree audit to be sure of the courses needed for graduation in this major.
