RHEOPATH UNIVERSITY — MY ACADEMIC PATHWAY
RheoPath MAP — My Academic Pathway
THE CHALLENGE

Higher education has a clarity problem.

Two in three college students don't graduate within six years. Not because they aren't capable, but because the path forward is unclear.
Degree requirements are complex, advising resources are stretched thin, and students are left navigating systems that were never designed for them.
Universities feel the same friction. Advisors are overloaded. Support is fragmented. Leadership lacks consistent visibility.

RheoPath changes that.

Students

Unclear path forward. Complex requirements. No single source of truth for what comes next or what decisions matter most.

Advisors

Limited time. Fragmented context. Caseloads too large to manage meaningfully without better tools and clearer visibility.

Institutions

Low visibility. Disconnected systems. No unified view of where students stand or which interventions are actually working.

WHAT RHEOPATH IS

A platform built for every level of the institution.

RheoPath sits above the university's existing systems. The student information system, learning management system, catalog, and advising platforms. We do not replace these systems.

RheoPath turns complex academic requirements into clear, visual, actionable pathways.

RheoPath is the intelligence layer that makes those systems work together.

WHO IT SERVES

Built for students. Designed for institutions.

Students

A clear, visual map of their path to graduation. Where they stand, what comes next, and what's at risk — all in one place.

Advisors & Faculty

Caseload intelligence, early-warning signals, and the tools to intervene before a student falls behind.

Registrars & Academic Affairs

Governed pathway publishing, institutional rule control, and AI the institution validates before students ever see it.

IT & System Administrators

Real-time integration monitoring, field mapping, and full visibility into how RheoPath connects to existing institutional systems.

WHY IT MATTERS

The Case for RheoPath

375:1

Advising capacity is stretched.

Advisor-to-student ratios exceed 375:1 at institutions across the country.

Reducing meaningful advising time to less than 10 minutes per student, per week.

Administrative tasks consume 30–40% of the advisor's day.

RheoPath gives time back to faculty for meaningful conversations.

60%

Students unaware of support.

Research identifies a significant student awareness gap.

Many students unaware of the academic support their institution provides.

RheoPath puts institutional guidance directly in the student's hands.

1 in 3

Students and institutions suffer.

Two in three college students don't graduate within six years.

A 1% retention improvement saves $90K annually at 3,000 students and $450K+ at 15,000.

What is a 1% improvement worth to your institution? RheoPath delivers.

Modeled on public tuition benchmarks & RheoPath workflow assumptions.

AI in higher education needs governance.

RheoPath uses governed AI grounded in institution-approved content only with full citation provenance, and a complete audit trail. Nothing is shared with a student without institutional sign-off.

Built on what already exists.

RheoPath connects to the systems you currently rely on via integration. No new systems of record. No disruption to existing workflows. Implementation begins without replacing a single system you already own.

Retention and productivity figures are modeled estimates based on public tuition benchmarks, NACADA and Tyton Partners research, and RheoPath workflow assumptions. Individual results will vary by institution size, enrollment profile, and implementation scope.
