About your Success Network powered by Starfish Solutions

Florida Atlantic University recognizes and embraces its responsibility to provide students with the necessary and appropriate skills, abilities, information, and resources to enable them to make enlightened decisions. To meet the challenges of excellence in education, this institution is committed to offering its students the opportunity to receive assistance and guidance in clarifying life and career goals, developing suitable educational plans, strengthening decision-making skills, increasing their awareness of University policies and procedures, and acquiring information regarding University and community resources.

Students must be active participants in deciding the goals and direction of their university experience, and they are expected to avail themselves of all opportunities to become knowledgeable, self-directed, and competent decision-makers. As partners in the advising process, the student and advisor work toward the common goal of enhancing the academic experience by devising the best possible academic program. However, students must ultimately take responsibility for their own progress toward a degree.  

The Success Network powered by Starfish Solutions is an online communication system that connects you, the student, to a network of support and to the resources needed to be successful at FAU. Advisors, faculty, tutors, and many different support staff make up your "Success Network".

The goal of using the Success Network is to make it easy for you to communicate and connect with the resources you need to be successful and complete your degree. You can use the scheduling tool in your Success Network to make appointments with your advisor. You will also be able to use this system to track your academic progress. Instructors will be able to raise "flags" to let you know that you may need additional support and inform you how and where to find increased support. Instructors can also give you "kudos" and congratulate you on your success.

Items such as your courses (progress in those courses), academic plans, your degree audit (DARS), and other retention tools will be available in your Success Network.

You can access and log into the system in many different ways.
