The latest trends, news, and solutions in Higher Education
Every year, EDUCAUSE, the leader in detailing technology and its applications in Higher Education puts out a list of the Top-10 Issues Facing Higher Ed.
In this article, we explore their 2025 list of issues, and how FlightPath, the academic advising & student success system, is uniquely positioned to address these priorities, helping institutions thrive in an era of technological and societal transformation.
As an academic advisor or administrator, you are all too familiar with the challenges of keeping track of ever-changing degree requirements. Whether you are advising students across multiple catalog years, handling students with different majors, or managing curriculum updates each year, the complexities can quickly become overwhelming.
That's where FlightPath comes in—a powerful tool designed to simplify advising & planning, ensure accuracy, and improve the advising experience for both students and advisors.
With enrollment numbers falling, universities are looking for ways to attract more students, especially those transferring from two-year community colleges.
FlightPath offers prospective transfer students a clear, visual roadmap, showing exactly how their credits will transfer into a degree at your institution. This makes FlightPath an excellent and affordable recruitment tool.
We're thrilled and flattered to announce that one of our client schools, Lee College, will be conducting a presentation on how they implemented FlightPath on their campus. Lee College has utilized FlightPath to great success over the years.
This presentation at the Talent Strong Texas Pathways institute (Nov 13-15, 2024 in Fort Worth, TX) will focus on how FlightPath has helped to reshape both student communications and academic advising.
With effective communication being key to fostering student engagement, retention, and success, universities are increasingly recognizing the importance of staying connected with their students.
Thanks to its innovative multi-line text messaging feature, FlightPath allows institutions to send and receive text messages with students from multiple dedicated lines, ensuring that communications are efficiently routed to the appropriate departments—be it Freshman Advising, Financial Aid, or any other department or support service.
