2. What courses do you need to graduate with your AA degree? (Please see Lena Paxton to get a copy
of your Degree Audit, if you have problems. Lena is located in the Matrix in the Taylor Administration
Building on the CSI campus; you can also email her at lpaxton@csi.edu.) Otherwise, go to MyCSI

under

your grades option.

According to my graduation audit the classes I am enrolled in are the only ones left needed
for graduation.
3. Have you applied for CSI graduation? (https://www.csi.edu/forms/students_forms/gradapp/)
I waited until classes began (today) upon discretion of my advisor to apply for graduation. It will
be done by this weekend.
4. Have you completed CSIs Computer Literacy Assessment? (http://computerliteracy.csi.edu/)
According to my graduation audit, yes.

5. What are the entrance requirements for your chosen four-year institution? What are the
application deadlines? If you plan to apply for scholarships, what are the scholarship
application deadlines? Have you applied for financial aid?
I have talked several times with my advisor already. WGU accepts only general education
requirements. I need to check application deadlines, but as far as I know, I am completed with
what I have to do thus far. I have taken care of the financial aid aspect as far as entering the
school code into my FAFSA. I will be looking into scholarship especially because the school
offers a military spouses scholarship.
6. Does your chosen four-year institution require Praxis 1 (or other tests)? What scores are
needed? What are the dates for Praxis 1 (or other tests)? Do these tests have to be completed
before the application deadline? If so, how long does it take to process test scores?

From my understanding and talking to my advisor, no. However, I will not start
until February with them because it will take a month for them to square away my
transfer credits. I will need to contact them in December for more finalized
transfer plans after I graduate at CSI. This form has been a good reminder to
maybe get in touch with them again this coming month to touch base.
