Case Study: Wake Forest University transforms student services with Workday

Wake Forest University modernizes student services with Workday for 5,400 undergraduates

Wake Forest University was facing challenges with a heavily customized, legacy on-premises system that had an unpredictable upgrade path. To create a more unified and future-ready platform for student services, the university partnered with Workday, implementing its Student, Financial Management, and Human Capital Management products.

By deploying Workday, the university streamlined processes like course registration and transcript requests, saving students significant time. The solution also improved data integrity and operational efficiency across departments. Furthermore, Wake Forest utilized Workday Extend to build custom applications, automating tasks and freeing up staff to focus on student education. The results for Workday include a seamless mobile experience for students and a modern system that receives consistent, predictable updates.
