Starfish

What is Starfish?

Starfish CONNECTâ„¢, is a software tool to help coordinate and facilitate student success efforts (academic advising, tutoring, and so forth) for both students and staff. Starfish encourages students to engage more deeply in their academic lives by connecting them to the people and resources best equipped to help them succeed.

Starfish EARLY ALERTâ„¢, the early warning and student tracking module of the Starfish platform, collects information and manages concerns in a way that respects different groups’ unique workflows, so they can engage more deeply with more students.
