What is Navigate?

EAB Navigate is one of the four advising technologies used on the USC Columbia campus. It is heavily utilized as the primary scheduling platform for academic advising appointments, as well as for nearly two dozen student service offices around campus.

The original platform is intended to guide the prioritization of outreach to and interaction with students based on risk levels and success marker flags. The success markers are established by each department based on the courses that are most predictive of success in each major over time using USC historic student data, or based on critical courses from major maps. These involve both threshold grades in key courses and the timing of those courses. Risk levels are based on student performance and characteristics relative to other students who have graduated in the particular major. Success markers, risk levels, and student characteristics (GPA ranges, class level, department, college, native/transfer, etc.) can be used to quickly query lists of students who may need further assistance.
