# Meet Pathways

Understand how Pathways can help students chart a course to graduation.

Pathways is an interface that visually summarizes the requirements for earning a degree or other credential from your institution. Forget about browsing a giant PDF. With Pathways, students can find their program more easily, picture their academic options more clearly, ask more informed questions of their support staff, and navigate decisions more confidently from term to term. Students can even create their own version of a program plan to map out which courses they'll take in each term.

Let's meet Stuart. He's interested in two programs: Economics and Computer Science. He wants to see details for each program so that he can make an informed decision about which one to pursue. Pathways lets him easily see all requirements for each program.

After reviewing both programs, Stuart decides to major in Economics. He schedules an appointment with an academic counselor on his success team to discuss the decision. During the appointment, they look at the specific details for the Economics major and plan for Stuart to take some lower level required courses next term.

In future appointments, Stuart and his counselor can review the requirements and make sure that Stuart stays on the path toward graduation. They can also create a Personal Program Plan that plots, term by term, the courses he needs to take to graduate on time.
