Your Plan
Your academic plan lets you visualize when you will take courses to meet your graduation requirements. RISD provides a template for first-year students as well as upon major declaration. Students may adjust their plan to meet their own unique circumstances or if they change/add majors but should consult with their advisor and department first as many departments require students to take classes in a specific order. Adjusting your plan does not modify your graduation requirements.
