Pellissippi State provides an online service which enables students to print to Open Computer Lab printers from personal devices such as laptops, phones or tablets. This service requires login using a current Pellissippi State username and password, and supports printing of files which are already in Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, or PDF (Adobe Acrobat) format.
Pellissippi State libraries provide a similar but not identical service to allow PSCC faculty, staff and students to print wirelessly to printers in PSCC libraries. For instructions, please see the FAQ on the PSCC Libraries web page.
For information on how to print from your wireless device, visit the Wireless Printing knowledgebase article.

Degree Works is a Web-based tool for students to monitor their academic progress toward degree completion. Degree Works allows students and their academic advisors to plan future academic coursework.
Yes and No. Access to Degree Works is through the Web. Anywhere you can log into MyPellissippi will allow you access to Degree Works.
Currently the only web browsers that are supported are Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Safari.
Degree Works is not supported on iPad, tablets or mobile devices.
Yes. Like other processes you use through MyPellissippi, Degree Works is accessed through your secure log in. Your academic advisor, faculty, and selected staff will be able to view the information contained in Degree Works.
A Degree Works degree audit is a review of past, current and "planned" coursework that provides information on completed and outstanding requirements necessary to complete a program of study.
Currently, Degree Works is available to all degree-seeking students. Academic advisors, faculty, and selected staff will also have access for the purpose of supporting your progress through your academic career.
The information in Degree Works is refreshed each night. Any changes made today (e.g., grade changes or classes added/dropped) will be seen in Degree Works tomorrow.
No. Degree Works is a snapshot of courses in-progress, planned, and in academic history. Registration will continue to be handled through Banner Self-Service accessible through MyPellissippi.
Yes. Degree Works is laid out in block format displaying degree and major requirements information. Look for unchecked boxes to identify requirements that you still need to complete.
Yes, See Using the Plans FAQ section for information
Yes. Once grades have been processed at the end of the semester, they are viewable in Degree Works following the nightly refresh. Courses in-progress are listed with an "R" grade.
Yes. On the Audit tab, click on the Class History link at the top for a printable list of courses taken at Pellissippi as well as transfer courses.
You should consult your academic advisor for a review of your audit. Any exceptions to major requirements should be discussed with your academic advisor.
There could be several reasons why your information is not up-to-date. One is that Degree Works may not have refreshed since a change was made (the information is refreshed nightly). Two, if you completed transfer coursework, your transcript has not been received and/or evaluated. Check with Records if your transcript or audit does not reflect transfer work you have completed.
Pellissippi State provides several options for storing your digital files and projects.

You cannot update course information in Degree Works. To change your major submit the online form that can be accessed through MyPellissippi. You are strongly advised to see your academic advisor before changing your major.
Contact your academic advisor.
In college policy 08:13:01 COMPUTER USAGE, the policy states:
All laptops and peripheral storage devices such as thumb drives must be encrypted. All mobile devices that access college e-mail or FERPA information must have a passcode.
College Laptops
Every College-owned laptop and portable storage device should be encrypted. Encryption will offer an added level of security in case of theft or loss of equipment. Data protection is essential and required for all Personal Identifiable Information (PII) and The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). FERPA is the federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. It is our goal to encrypt every College-owned laptop during this FY. We are now using BitLocker as our encryption tool for laptops and flash drives that do not have built-in encryption. It is advised that you keep private records on our SECURE network servers. Your H:\ drive is an example of a safe place to store this data if your job requires such storage. Please refer to policy:
Flash Drives
To avoid risk of accidental loss of sensitive college information from portable media, all such devices should be encrypted. Two options are available for this encryption.
- Purchase an encrypted flash drive.
- Download Bitlocker's free software to encrypt your flashdrive (Bitlocker To-Go)
An error message (Status = 3701) is displayed when an audit was not systematically generated. Examples: Students following a deactivated program, UTK articulation, and students whose program is UNDEC-OTHER will not have an audit. The What-If feature must be used to generate a What-If audit for these students.
Status = 3701
No requirement blocks were found for this student.
Check the student's catalog years and other degree information.
Your audit will display the courses you have taken or are registered for and will show you any degree or major requirements that are being met by the courses you have taken or that may be met upon satisfactory completion of courses in progress.
Pellissippi State has now implemented the Dynamic Forms system, which will aid the college in creation of electronic forms.
To request an existing form be converted or a new form be created for your department:
- Log into myPellissippi and click the "Employees" Tab, then go to the "College Forms" section.
- At the bottom of that box, click on the “Request for a Dynamic Form” link.
- This link will open the PSCC Dynamic Forms login page, where you must login using your PSCC username (without the "@pstcc.edu") and password.
- Upon successful login, the form will auto fill your name and PSCC email address.
- To ensure your request is processed in a timely manner, complete ALL form fields, including as much detail as possible.
After your request is submitted, one of our form designers will contact you.
Degree Works is not an official academic transcript nor is it an official notification of completion of degree requirements. An academic transcript from the Office of the Registrar is the official college record.
While selecting a location, always verify the location's availability by looking at the icons that appear. Some locations, such as classrooms, may be available, but will not be held in your event until the Academic Coordinator has approved their use (25Live is how one requests them). Other locations are considered "common areas" and will be held immediately.
These icons identify possible conflicts. At the end of an event reservation, always double check to make sure the correct location (or location request) is visible.
The primary way to access 25Live is from the link on the "Employees" tab in myPellissppi:
If one feels so inclined, one can also navigate to 25Live through its web address: https://25live.collegenet.com/pstcc/
Degree Works uses the information that is current from your transcript. You will be able to view any courses that have been completed, registered for, and transferred by the date your audit was last refreshed. (Data is refreshed nightly.) Keep in mind that any transfer work or grade changes that have not been formally submitted and accepted will not appear on your audit.
Your academic advisor is your primary point of contact. If your academic advisor determines that your audit is incorrect, he/she will contact Records for assistance.
As 25Live tries to remember what you were looking at before you navigated away, it sometimes misses newly created events. Use the refresh button within 25Live and your new event should appear.
Your GPA is a calculated GPA based on coursework used to fulfill major requirements. This GPA will appear within the student header section of your audit.
Your audit will outline for you courses still needed to meet degree and/or major requirements within each specific block. You may then use this information to discuss your plan with your academic advisor. If a course has been completed and used in the audit, it will not display in the list of courses still needed.
To cancel an event in 25Live, you must remove all locations and resources.
Additionally, when an event is cancelled, a decision has to be made on whether or not to advertise its cancellation (e.g. on the web calendar).
Here is our knowledgebase article on how to cancel an event and either advertise the cancellation or not.
Yes, all courses transferred in from other colleges, military credit, PLA credit, AP credit, and/or credit from study abroad should show on your degree audit.
Your academic advisor is your primary point of contact. If your academic advisor determines that your audit is incorrect, he/she will contact Records for assistance. .
First, enter the actual start and end time of the event. Once completed, select “Yes” for “additional time needed before event” and enter the allotted time needed for Pre-Event\Setup. Then select “Yes” for “additional time needed for after the event” and enter the allotted time needed for Post-event\Takedown.
Students should meet with their academic advisor to discuss this matter. If a correction needs to be made, the online change of major form must be submitted.
Courses that are listed under the Courses Not Used or Insufficient blocks do not meet any of the program requirements. Students should meet with their academic advisor to clarify questions.
Degree Works adheres to Pellissippi’s repeat polices when producing a degree audit. Please see the online catalog for Pellissippi’s repeat policy under General Academic Policies.
In–progress and successfully completed courses that do not apply directly into a program of study are listed under the Courses Not Used heading. Courses that do not meet a grade requirement for several reasons including class withdrawal, insufficient grades, or repeated classes, are listed under the insufficient heading.
25Live uses both "web cookies" and "applets" to do its job. If it is acting "weird" while you are using it, likely it is one of three reasons:
- CollegeNet will occasionally apply updates to the 25Live environment in order to fix or improve performance. Once they have completed the updates, it is a good practice to clear the old cache and cookies from your browser and start fresh!
- Mozilla or Google will occasionally apply updates to their respective web browsers in order to fix or improve performance. CollegeNet will then have to update 25Live to play well with the updated browsers. Once that happens, it is a good practice to clear the old cache and cookies from your browser and start fresh (you can also try accessing 25Live on a different browser until everyone plays well again).
- Your computer legitimately hates you...just kidding. But it may be an error on your specific PC. Try restarting your computer. PC errors will sometimes fix themselves in the rebooting process.
If none of these solutions work, reach out to events@pstcc.edu with a screenshot and a description of the weirdness and we will brainstorm together.
Check with your previous academic advisor or contact the Student Assistance Center at the Hardin Valley Campus.
Meet with your academic advisor to assist you with your change of major.
25Live performs best in Firefox or Chrome on a conventional desktop or laptop. Some functionality may be lost in other web browsers (such as Internet Explorer or Safari) or on mobile devices (such as an iPad, cell phone, or Kindle).
Contact Records (865-694-6549) at the Hardin Valley Campus.
You can access your second degree audit by using the What If menu at the top of the screen.
There could be several reasons. First, the transfer course is not equivalent to a Pellissippi State Community College course that meets that requirement. Second, all requirements have been met and this class is simply not needed. Third, transfer work may not have been processed. Please contact Records if you have questions about your transfer coursework.
Yes, Courses from which you have withdrawn will appear in the insufficient block on your audit.
25Live is the "one stop" web application used by Pellissippi State to assign locations, resources, or services. Software training is available on request to any PSCC employee. Please contact events@pstcc.edu to set up an appointment.
HOWEVER...
Many find it easier to partner with Event Services by using the Event Planning Form found in the Employee Resource section of MyPellissippi. Event Services can reserve the needed locations, resources, and services for you (as well as help navigate the PSCC policies and procedures governing them). Finally, Event Services will email you a hyperlink of your reservation within 25Live and will remain available to answer any questions you may have. Those people are nothing if not useful!
You should contact your academic advisor to resolve any substitution issue. Any waivers, substitutions, or exceptions for major requirements must be approved through a process initiated by your academic advisor and approved by the appropriate campus dean.
Your academic advisor can assist you in verifying that a substitution or waiver request has been properly submitted and approved by the appropriate campus dean and has been recorded by the Records department.
Not necessarily. If you have applied to graduate, the Records department will perform a degree audit of your coursework to determine if you are eligible to graduate. Missing requirements will be communicated to you via your Pellissippi email account.
Please see your academic advisor before submitting an online graduation application.
Student ID cards will be available for students at:
- Hardin Valley Campus - Open Computer Lab (ERC 327)
- Other campuses - Campus Library
See your academic advisor to obtain a degree audit.
The What If function allows you to hypothetically change your major. The What If audit will show you what coursework is required for the new major, what courses you have taken that satisfy requirements, and what courses are still left for you to take.
To view how your courses count in a different major, you must:
- Click on the "What If" button
- Select the degree you are considering.
- Select the catalog year that matches the year you will select that major.
- Select the major you are considering.

Where technologically possible and not legally required, Pellissippi State tries to display a preferred first name inside our different information systems and email. New students and employees have the opportunity to identify a preferred first name when they apply or are hired. However, existing students and employees can also add a preferred first name in our Banner system. This is then fed into other systems on campus.
If you would like to know how to change, there is a knowledgebase article with step by step instructions.
No. The What If function is for information purposes only. You will see the header What If Audit displayed at the top of the audit whenever an audit is run on a What If scenario
Yes. The What If function will perform an audit based on the hypothetical major and will show how your completed, current, and planned coursework meets the requirements of the hypothetical major.
Since What If scenarios are not stored on Degree Works, your academic advisor can only see your results if the two of you work through a What If procedure together.
Yes. Degree Works will allow you to select more than one major at a time, or to select multiple major(s).
