Navigate is a system used by schools to help students succeed in their education. It connects administrators, advisors, faculty, and students to support student success.

The University Academic Advisement Center was the initial adopter of Navigate, using it to coordinate academic advising and document student progress. As the project progresses there will be more phases, additional care units, and many areas included in the usage of Navigate as we work to give our students the most holistic support in achieving success here at Jackson State University.

This page provides support and answers for JSU Navigate users. If you need help, please email advising@jsums.edu with a screenshot of the issue, your full name, email or best contact, and J-Number.
