My course information in my Pegasus Path and myKnight Audit don’t match. Which system is accurate?

The myKnight Audit is the official tool for listing your degree requirements and tracking the courses you’ve completed.

What does the “Audit with Planned Courses” function do?
The audit with planned courses shows how your planned courses in Pegasus Path will satisfy requirements on your myKnight audit. If you plan all courses, you can run the audit with planned courses to see if you meet all the major, minor and/or certificate requirements.
This function is for planning purposes only.
What does the “What-If?” function do?
If you are considering a major/minor change, the “What-If?” function shows you how your completed credits would apply to the new program of study and how your graduation date will be impacted. The What-If “Study Plan” creates a generic plan using the plan defaults but cannot be customized. Keep in mind that this is just a planning function.

What is the Pegasus Path, and why should I use it?
Pegasus Path is an interactive degree planning tool that will help you get from orientation to graduation. The tool will show you a semester-by-semester sequence of required courses based on your degree program.
The Pegasus Path is an interactive degree planning tool for UCF’s undergraduates. It uses information from your myKnight Audit, the undergraduate course catalog and input from your academic success coach or advisor to create a recommended academic plan based on your major. You can then customize that plan to fit your schedule and preferences, building a personalized roadmap to graduation.
The Pegasus Path will alert you to scheduling conflicts in your proposed plan, or if you’re taking on an especially challenging course combination. It will also remind you of important milestones, like the deadline for applying for graduation.
It also recommends learning experiences, like internships and study abroad related to your course of study. So, using Pegasus Path will not only help you graduate on time but make you more marketable to potential employers and a more competitive graduate school applicant.
In addition to helping you stay on track for graduation, you can use Pegasus Path to get a snapshot of your progress. Its reports and audits show you the courses you’ve completed and classes that are still required for the completion of your degree. If you’re thinking about changing your major or adding a minor, a “What-If?” report will show you what courses you’d need to pick up and how the change would affect your graduation timeline.
Finally, Pegasus Path serves as a portal for your academic success coach or advisor to communicate with you.
