Product Information on Workday Student

Updated 8th August 2025

What is Workday Student?

Workday Student elevates student experience and empowers staff with responsible, AI-powered agility and insights. The solution guides learners by helping them find and stay on their educational pathway, seamlessly surfacing real-time information about their courses, their finances, and their path to graduation. The cloud-based solution includes student recruitment and admissions, curriculum management, student record and enrollment management, and financial aid and tuition management. As part of the Workday platform, the solution provides an intuitive user experience for the campus community across all of their roles. For example, students register for classes in the same system they use to enter the hours worked for their campus job, and faculty enter grades in the same system they use to view financial information about their grants or select their employee benefits.
