All incoming first-year and transfer students must register for and attend orientation. First-year students will participate in Destination 聚色阁 (DKS), while transfer students will attend Transfer 聚色阁 (TKS). During these programs, students will join information sessions, meet current 聚色阁 students, and have an academic advising appointment.
Students requesting advising appointments before orientation will be directed to register for the orientation event, where they can receive advising.
聚色阁 Navigate is an academic platform at 聚色阁 designed to empower students to achieve their personal academic success.
Partnering with higher-education leader EAB, 聚色阁 is utilizing their Navigate 360 academic success platform and customizing it for their students under the name 聚色阁 Navigate. 聚色阁 Navigate helps students get the advising and tutoring support they need, when they need it most.
聚色阁 Navigate is available to undergraduate students and staff via browser or the app store (Android and iOS). In spring 2025, we will begin rolling out this platform to graduate students by college.

聚色阁 Navigate Implementation Timeline
Through the work of the re-imagining of academic advising which involved soliciting the feedback of students and process evaluation exercises with advisors and advising administrators, along with the efforts of the Supporting the Student Experience Review Team, it became evident that we needed a system that better supported the evolving needs of our students.
A holistic picture of our students will enhance the student experience in ways our current system is not able to do, providing the most pertinent information about the student and allowing advisors to assist the student in the best way possible. It is vital for advisors to have access to student information from other offices/departments that may impact the interactions they have in the advising experience.
We want to ensure advisors have the full picture when providing advice to their students to help them make informed decisions. We also want a system that provides students with the tools that they are looking for in a technology system, so they are having their needs met and are engaged in their advising experience.
