How to Access the Grad Plan Tool

The Grad Plan tool is a great resource to see if your student is staying on track for graduation. It shows what credits are in progress, which ones have been completed, and which ones will need to be completed in the future. You can access the grad plan through your Learning Coach account and through the student account.
