New Cardinal Apps

We’re thrilled to introduce a platform that’s not just static, but continuously evolving to meet your unique needs. With a wide array of exciting new customizations underway, this platform is designed to adapt and grow with you, becoming your ultimate source of personalized information. Whether you’re looking for tailored content, tools, or innovative features, our platform is committed to delivering an experience that’s truly dynamic.

Problem Statement

While Cardinal Apps provided a convenient, all-in-one solution for accessing various applications, it lacked a centralized dashboard that could efficiently deliver announcements, news, and personalized information in an easily consumable format. Users found themselves needing a more engaging and interactive platform—one that not only consolidated essential updates and content but also presented them in a way that was intuitive and user-friendly. This highlighted the need for a more dynamic solution that could better meet the needs of our community by providing a seamless experience for staying informed and connected.

Solution

Our solution was to customize and launch Ellucian Experience, providing a platform that seamlessly integrates with our ERP system. This integration allows us to deliver information specifically tailored to you, ensuring that you receive only the content that is most relevant to your needs.

FAQs

What will happen to the old Cardinal Apps?

The old Cardinal Apps version is not going away, but we will be slowly transitioning to the new Cardinal Apps in Summer 2025. During the 2024-25 academic year, both applications will be running at the same time.

Over the summer of 2025, the web url, https://apps.uiw.edu, will transfer to point to the new Cardinal Apps. The old Cardinal Apps will transition to a different url that will still be accessible, if needed.
