What-If reports allow you to simulate a CARR for planning purposes. Run a What-if report if you are considering a different major, emphasis, or option. A What-If report can also help you determine whether a course you plan to take will meet your requirements. You can choose to simulate a "what-if" major or "what-if" courses at the same time or separately.

Major What-If
Run a What-If report and view the requirements for a major you are considering. Designate up to three 鈥渨hat-if鈥� majors or minors at a time.
