WHEN TO USE NAVIGATE

Use Navigate when:

  • Attendance or engagement changes

  • A student shares a barrier (life stress, financial concerns, workload, etc.)

  • Midterm performance trends are heading in the wrong direction

  • Registration is approaching and the student seems stuck or disengaged

  • You want to ensure a student gets connected to support now, not later

Benefit Tiles

Quickly view helpful information in a Student Profile so you can respond with clarity and confidence—especially when a student is struggling or disengaged.

Make referrals that route students to the right office with better follow-through, reducing delays and removing guesswork for students.

Navigate helps faculty, advisors, and support teams work together—so students experience one connected network instead of separate offices and repeated conversations.

FAQs

AP Navigate is APSU’s shared student success platform. It brings together key student support tools—profiles, communication, and referrals—so faculty and support teams can coordinate outreach and connect students to resources efficiently.

Faculty are often the first to notice when something is “off.” Navigate makes it easier to respond early and connect students to help before small issues become end-of-semester crises.

Navigate helps students by speeding up connections to support, improving follow-through, and creating a more coordinated experience—so students aren’t bounced around or asked to repeat their story.

You can review Student Profiles, send messages/outreach, refer students to support services, and document concerns or communication so the right teams can follow up.

Use Navigate anytime you’re concerned about attendance, engagement, performance trends, a student shares a barrier, or you want to connect them with the right resource—especially around midterms and registration.

No. Navigate is designed to reduce time spent searching for information and coordinating support across email threads. Most actions take just a few minutes and can prevent larger issues later.

Depending on what you do, students may receive a message, outreach, or referral notification. The goal is supportive, transparent outreach that helps students take the next step.

Navigate is used by designated APSU professionals involved in student support. Notes and referrals help the right people follow up and reduce duplicated outreach.

Start with the option that best matches the student’s need, or contact navigate_support@apsu.edu for help selecting the right referral pathway.
