    The system is owned and operated by Ellucian, but global administrators have impacted how the product has developed over time. It hits all of our needs as the platform's configuration is extremely relevant to our operations. Student activity flows seamlessly into the finance and accounting functions and also helps us keep track of all core student metrics.
