The Comprehensive Academic Advising and Information System (CAAIS) - HYPERLINK "http://caais.psu.edu" http://caais.psu.edu/ is a valuable electronic resource intended to supplement student/adviser relationships and engage students in interactive inquiry for informed educational planning. CAAIS consists of five components: • Interactive Advising - provides students with expert-based academic advising, including tailored responses based on individual student input, student academic history and University policy. • OASIS - Open Access to Student Information System provides students with access to their academic records. Student access ranges from viewing semester grades and transcript information, current course sched ules to updating address information and requesting e-mail copies of degree audits. • Academic and Advising References - provides hypertext links to those official University documents and publications critical to academic advising and to the internal operations of CAAIS. • Adviser Services - provides advisers with a broad student information base and student specific information in support of adviser day-to-day interactions with students. • CAAIS Index - provides a comprehensive list of the topics contained within CAMS, and search engines for the CAAIS web pages. Its purpose is to provide a navigational aid for the users of CAAIS. Students must have a current Access account provided by the Center for Academic Computing to gain access to the Interactive and OASIS components. To learn more about CAAIS and to use its many services, access the CAMS Home Page on the World Wide Web.
