Tiger Portal Overview

Overview

On March 23rd, 2025, Banner Web for students will be updated to a new app called Ellucian Experience.  At Southern Crescent, we will refer to it as Tiger Portal.  Tiger Portal will give you direct links to all of relevant tasks that you would need to complete in Banner.
