By the Numbers
66,900: The number of notes WVU advisers have added or updated in DegreeWorks, April 2021 – December 2021.
21,216: The number of advising appointments logged into Navigate* in Fall 2021.
9,492: The number of advising hours logged into Navigate* in Fall 2021.
*The actual number is likely higher since not all units on campus utilize Navigate, WVU’s student success management system, the same way.
In Their Own Words
