Problem

There is currently no centralized communication platform for Johns Hopkins University undergraduates and their respective faculty advisors. Semester.ly has become widely used at Hopkins as a course planner, but it has the potential to do more in the arena of course planning.

Solution

Every semester, students need to meet with their advisors at least once to clarify their plans for the upcoming semester. Semester.ly could be the bridge between advisors and advisees by vastly simplifying the process of advisor-advisee communication, and thus, allowing more time for both parties to understand what’s necessary for a student to graduate on time and have enjoyable course work along the way.
