Student Plan Report Launched
A new report has been created that allows advisors to see the contents of the Plans built by students in their school or college. It is a handy one-stop-shop for info about all student plans: Advisors are able to filter by semester, by student, by major, or by other attributes, and the report only has to be run once to get data for all of the school or college’s students, making it much faster than running individual students’ Plans.
Here is a link for advisors on how to access the Student Plan Report:

Advising departments will notify students as Roadmaps become available for their specific majors.
