About
Workday Student is the student information system (SIS) solution within Workday's enterprise cloud platform — part of Workday, Inc. (NASDAQ: WDAY), which generated $2.211 billion in Q4 FY2025 revenue (+15% year-over-year) — providing higher education institutions with cloud-native tools for managing the complete student lifecycle from prospect recruitment through admissions, registration, financial aid disbursement, academic records, advising, and alumni relations in a unified system built on the same Workday platform architecture used for HR and finance. Available to colleges and universities worldwide, with the Australia and New Zealand market launch in February 2025 extending Workday Student's international footprint, the platform reduces administrative errors by 17% compared to legacy SIS implementations by eliminating the manual data reconciliation required when multiple systems track different aspects of student records.
