The problem

An advising conversation needs to combine progress toward a degree with the requirements still unresolved. A student’s credit total should lead into specific planning questions.

The direction

Arcadia pairs the advisor’s caseload with a degree audit showing completed core modules, planned electives and a capstone that needs review.

Inside the product

  1. Select the advisee

    The advising caseload distinguishes course planning, credit transfer and follow-up needs.

  2. Review the degree audit

    Earned and required credits sit above the remaining degree requirements.

  3. Approve the course plan

    Program, advisor and course-plan details accompany the proposed approval action.

Arcadia application concept: select the advisee, review the degree audit, approve the course plan

Design decisions

Use progress as context

The credit bar supports the requirement list rather than replacing it with a single completion score.

Preserve the advising relationship

Campus imagery establishes the setting; the app retains a named advisee and a concrete planning decision.

What we would validate next

Map degree-audit rules, transfer-credit handling, enrollment data and advisor responsibilities with the institution before integrating student systems.

This is an independent design exploration. The screens use illustrative brands and records; they describe a proposed experience.
