Advising students is always a time-consuming and sometimes challenging task for both the academic advisors and the students. Both the student and the advisor must understand the degree plan and the course sequence to know what courses the student is qualified to take and be on the path to completing the program and graduating. Currently, the advising at PVAMU campus (and maybe on many other campuses) is done as (1) the student and their advisor make an appointment to meet, (2) the advisor checks the student’s academic progress at either PantherTrack or a paper copy of the student’s degree plan checklist, and then follow the course sequence to come up a list of the courses the student is qualified to take next, (3) fill out and sign the registration form, and finally register the courses in the PantherTrack system. The above process usually takes 30 to 60 minutes per student. This app is designed to expedite this advising process and bring all information needed to the student’s smartphone, including a degree plan checklist, courses completed, courses to be done, and a list of courses the student is qualified to take based on the course sequence. This app also assists students in monitoring their academic progress and provides them with a clear path toward graduation.
