For Penn State students · Free during beta
Navigate your degree, semester by semester.
GradGPS reads your transcript, audits it against your major’s real requirements, and plots the exact route to graduation — every course, every gen ed, every semester until you walk.
Works with your LionPATH transcript. Sign in with Google.
How it works
Three steps from transcript to graduation plan.
No spreadsheets, no guessing which requirements you’ve already knocked out, no waiting two weeks for an advising appointment to find out.
Upload your transcript
Export your unofficial transcript from LionPATH and drop it in. GradGPS parses every course, credit, and grade in seconds.
Pick your major
Search any Penn State major and add your concentration. Switching majors? Re-run the audit and instantly see what still counts.
Follow your route
Get a full degree audit and a semester-by-semester timeline to graduation that updates every time your record changes.
What’s inside
An advisor that has actually read the bulletin.
GradGPS audits against the real Penn State catalog — not a simplified copy — so the plan it gives you is one the registrar would agree with.
A real degree audit
Every requirement group in your major, checked against your record — including alternatives like MATH 110 or MATH 140, and credit pools that let you choose.
Gen eds, handled
Arts, sciences, humanities, cultures, quantification, writing-intensive credits — all eight domains tracked, with the one-course-one-category rules applied correctly.
Official plan sequencing
Where Penn State publishes a Suggested Academic Plan, your timeline follows it — prerequisites in order, credits balanced, reflowed around what you’ve already taken.
Know your professors
RateMyProfessors ratings appear right on each course, so when your plan says “take STAT 200,” you also know who to take it with.
Always current
Change your major, add a class, drop one — the audit and timeline rebuild instantly. Your plan is never a stale PDF from freshman orientation.
Private by default
Sign in with Google. Your transcript belongs to you — it’s used to build your plan and nothing else, and you can delete it any time.
Stop guessing. Start navigating.
