The application provides a college community with real-time access to the information they need, virtually wherever they happen to be, including class information, student and faculty directories, scheduling, administration and community information, social networking, ticket purchasing and fundraising options, along with campus wide alerts such as weather conditions or class cancellations.

“Where college students once had to wait in long lines at the Registrar’s Office, or set up an appointment with the dean, AT&T now puts at their fingertips information when they want it over a device and service that is an integral part of their daily life,” said Chris Hill, vice president, mobility product management, AT&T Business Solutions. “UpperClass from AT&T is another example of AT&T’s commitment to deliver innovative wireless applications that drive value for students, faculty, staff and alumni.”

 In addition to retrieving scheduling information, the service allows students to use smartphones to track their GPAs, get maps to building locations, monitor balances or add money to campus spending cards, see what’s on the menu at the campus dining hall, and even request an escort from campus security. Parents can use the service to monitor students’ schedules, grades, spending balances and get campus news. Faculty can see dynamic reports on their projects and their students’ progress, while alumni can check team scores, buy tickets to events.
