A Frozen Audit in the Ellucian Responsive Dashboard for DegreeWorks, is a saved snapshot of a degree audit from a specific point in time. Unlike a live audit, which updates automatically with the most recent course registrations, grades, or program changes, a frozen audit does not change. It shows exactly what the degree progress looked like when the audit was created.
Frozen audits are typically used for official purposes, such as graduation reviews or compliance checks. They provide a fixed reference that will remain the same, even if the academic record is updated later. If you see both a live and frozen audit, remember that the frozen audit is for historical or official tracking, while the live audit reflects current degree progress.
