The Workday Student software will launch in phases during the next two years. The project is currently 6 months away from go-live #1, which will occur in June 2023. There will be additional go-lives from October 2023 – November 2024.
The June 2023 go-live will primarily focus on recruiting and admissions business processes for the entering class of Fall 2024. It will also include financial aid business processes for recruiting awards and scholarships for new applicants.
A recent University-level decision that affects the Workday Student implementation was discussed at a December meeting:
- University catalog and graduate handbook freeze for 2023-24 through 2024-25 academic years to support project implementation.
