At UC Irvine, many undergraduate students face difficulties in locating and accessing important academic resources—such as tutoring services, major-specific course planning tools, research opportunities, academic advising, and mental health support—because this information is scattered across multiple websites and portals. This fragmentation makes it challenging for students to efficiently find the necessary resources, especially those outside their immediate department or major. As a result, students may miss out on valuable opportunities, experience confusion, and waste time navigating disjointed systems. Without a centralized and intuitive platform, this issue will likely persist, impacting student success and well-being across the UCI undergraduate population.
