DartWorks FAQs

Students create and save academic plans in the DartWorks Planner. Students can create plans for a variety of purposes such as completion of a major or minor, preparation for graduate school, fulfillment of general education requirements, or the culmination of their entire Dartmouth career. Plans are easy to update and rearrange as goals change while students explore various academic opportunities.

Note that some combinations of majors, minors, and modifiers are invalid. See the invalid combinations list.
