DARS to undergo upgrade and provide new features

K-State’s Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS) is undergoing an upgrade.

DARS is a reporting tool that provides individualized analysis of a student’s academic progress toward a specific degree.

On Monday, December 9, students and advisors will be able to utilize these new DARS features:

  • DARS audits will run only through KSIS, providing a consistent access method for advisors and students.
  • Pre-run DARS audits will run every seven days in KSIS, reducing the need for students and advisors to run them as often.
  • DARS audits can still be run on-demand to reflect newly changed data, such as grade changes, new enrollments, etc.
  • DARS audits will have enhanced formatting and be available as a PDF. Font sizes and colors have been changed to improve readability.
  • DARS exceptions will be entered in a web-based environment.

The DARS upgrade will start at 7 a.m. Thursday, December 5 and be completed before 8 a.m. Monday, December 9. During this period of time:

  • Users will be unable to run new DARS audits in K-State Online (KSOL) or KSIS.
  • Advisors can access existing DARS audits in KSOL until Monday, December 9.
  • All DARS audits run in KSIS prior to Thursday, December 5 will be deleted.

At 8 a.m. Monday, December 9:

  • The ability to run new DARS audits in KSIS will be restored.
  • Pre-run DARS audits in KSIS will begin processing and be ready within seven days.
  • Existing DARS audits in KSOL will no longer be available. New DARS audits may be run in KSIS.
