Beginning in Spring 2025, WashU will be utilizing a universal tool for advising notes (“Workday Student”) to create a more streamlined experience for students, faculty, and staff. This facilitates a comprehensive method for recording academic milestones and student interactions while establishing a vital and personalized link between students and WashU’s support services.
