How are your students progressing on the path to degree completion?
Ad Astra continuously guides you to those insights. The data tells a story of when, where, and how students want to learn so you can create completion paths that match demand, supporting predictable progress toward on-time completion.
Student Success
Ad Astra forecasts scheduling needs
based on leading indicators of student demand. Now you have the data to create multi-term schedules that improve retention, time to completion and completion rates.

“Without access to the classes I need to graduate on time, I’m stuck. Do I switch majors or schools? Or do I wait it out?”
INSTITUTION
“In this challenging enrollment climate, keeping students through graduation is more important than ever.”
Financial Health
Ad Astra continuously improves course schedule refinement strategies
to keep academic programs financially sustainable.

“I can’t afford not to have a degree. I’m just not sure I can keep up with the cost of getting one.”
INSTITUTION
“We need to know how to adjust our academic programs so that they positively impact our bottom line.”
Operational Efficiency
Ad Astra eliminates manual processes
with streamlined scheduling, centralized calendaring, and real-time collaboration tools to help you save time and improve efficiency.
Student
I never know what to expect when I register for courses. Why can’t it be easier?
INSTITUTION
Because our scheduling process is complex and manual, it costs us time and money each term.
Equitable Outcomes
Ad Astra helps you eliminate equity gaps
by providing the data to create conflict-free, inclusive schedules for all learners.

“I want to go to school full time, but I also work full time. How can I find a course schedule that fits with my life schedule?”
INSTITUTION
“We want to be a student-centered institution, but we don’t have the data to understand the needs of our diverse student population.”
Students and institutions approach education from two different perspectives. But both have the same destination: Graduation.
And Ad Astra sets the course to graduate more students faster.
