What is Nanook Navigator (Navigate Student)?

Nanook Navigator (Navigate Student) is a suite of interconnected tools to support students from enrollment to graduation and life-long success.  Nanook Navigator, includes two valuable products – a mobile app and an advising platform– to keep students on academic track, connected to their advisors and campus resources, and making progress toward graduation. 

This mobile app for students, streamlines the ۴ý experience through ways to get involved, upcoming registration and other important deadlines and personalized “to-dos”. Students can connect with university resources through their network and access a comprehensive directory of student services. Nanook Navigator is the best way for faculty, advisors, and student support staff to communicate with one another about the progress, concerns, and the unique needs of each student.
