Certificate Audit Submission Information
Our Spring Audit Window is now closed.
Our Summer Audit window will be open June 6th, 2023 through July 6th, 2023. During this time, you may request an audit of your completed classes to determine if you have met the class requirements for certification.
If you have completed classes toward a certification, be sure to submit an audit during this open audit window.
Go to the NM EDGE Student Record and Enrollment Site.
-
- Using the navigation bar on the left, select Certification Audit. Use the arrow to show the menu of certification choices, select the audit you want, and then submit. Please press submit ONLY once.
- **NOTE** If you receive a "system error" message when processing the audit request, please let us know. We recommend that you submit an audit request via email to nmedge@nmsu.edu at that time.
- The audit is to verify that you have completed all of your classes, and to assign you an Academic Advisor to work with you on your Culminating Experience, and to prepare you for graduation.
- For those of you who have completed all of your CPS and CPM classes, the Assessments are by invitation only, so please submit an audit and we will get back to you. Once we know who qualifies to be invited, we will notify you and set the date.
Thank you for your help as we strive to support you in achieving your goals.
