stop waiting until the last minute to let students know that they do not have enough grant aid, and the wait time when on calls is to long.
the wait time when someone calls for information or what ever reason is awful . No should not be have to be on hold for an 1 hour just to find out that the person they called for is not there. This has happened to many times. hire an answering service or something.
1 voteWe have passed this suggestion onto the financial services folks.

We are going to assist our contributors by giving them access to a tool called sitebeam so they can “check” their sites and get a report to fix the obvious items. Thanks for the feedback.
We offer a tool to help admins do this. Each gets an email every 4 days about their progress and outstanding issues.

add the share toolbar to each post.
Not sure if this has already been suggested, but we'd love the user to be able to share posts/pages on social media using the share toolbar.
5 votesHi,
Each page or post now has a share option in the upper right of the header. This header also “moves” down the page as the reader scrolls to make sure it is easily available.
Thanks,
Cody

Add some padding to the text on mobile news pages
I was tryin to read this article: http://news.gsu.edu/2013/07/01/georgia-state-university-foundation-purchases-55-park-place/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=georgia-state-university-foundation-purchases-55-park-place
However, the text is right up against the side of the iPhone screen and is hard to see. Add some padding to the sides.
1 voteWe’re working on this right now.
Thanks for the feedback. We did this and more to make news better in the latest theme.

Better mobile site
The website while viewing on smart phones is horrible
2 votesThe new page builder allows maximum control of the mobile experience and moved the site a far distance in both quality and ease of use on a mobile device.

What a great website!
I've looked at a LOT of college websites. This is very well designed and extremely usable. You actually have the number code in LARGE font on the first thing you see for admissions. Awesome!
1 voteThanks!

add a link for immunizations
The Intensive English Program keeps getting calls about immunizations because the top Google search for "GSU immunizations" is a link to the IEP. Please help non-IEP students find information about immunizations more easily.
1 voteThis is available.

add these items to the student dropdown
Per upper-level requests, please add Military Outreach (veterans.gsu.edu) and Student Success (success.students.gsu.edu) to the dropdown. These are both major initiatves and it will be good to have them a click off the homepage, as both sites have been hard for users to locate.
This one is just a suggestion, but can we change "Registration Info." to "Registrar"? It seems that the move to simple language didn't really translate like we thought it would; I'm hearing that many users are scanning for the word "Registrar."
1 voteWe have added the top two, but have a conflicting request for the registration info link. We’ll keep that the same for now until we have more data.

Tag colleges and departments in post
I would love to see specific colleges and departments tagged (or even linked to) in stories to drive traffic to those sites as well. The banner and all the buckets on the homepage right now are about arts and sciences, but none of them are tagged arts and sciences or even linked to the specific department page. It's great to have stories that highlight all that we do here, but it's even better if those stories lead to traffic to our sites to further increase interest in our programs. Thanks.
3 votesThe new news hub does this and more. A great suggestion.

update the interactive map
The information associated with the various buildings on campus is outdated and inaccurate. For example, Urban life mentions CHHS which no longer exists. No mention is made of Public Healh occupying the building, nor is there mention of the AYSPS units housed there. The info for the AYSPS building is not insightful. Someone needs to update all the buildings.
1 voteThanks Dean for the comment. We have updated the map with the most current and sustainable information. We are continuing to evolve this resource based on information we know is accurate and up to date.

change 404 page
Instead of Pounce and the latest tweet on the 404 page, can you put some useful information, such as where to report a broken link, and maybe a link to some of the useful navigation hubs, like the A-Z department list? The tweet (and even Pounce) is fine, but it's not really helping users who are lost in the new pages, and we've already gotten some complaints from prospective students and parents about it. Adding a default broken link instructional paragraph before the tweet would do wonders.
7 votesEach site in the latest theme can have a custom 404 page. We have developed a template for release later this summer.

Add the GPA calculator in the search and A-Z index
This tool is valuable but it is completely buried. And, it does not show up in the search/directory tool at the top every GSU page.
1 voteDone. Good idea.

make departments searchable on the map page!
If you're looking for a GSU department, you should be able to search for it on the map and it should lead you to the correct building that houses that department's main office.
10 votesWe are going to mark this under review to see if it can get more votes. A this time the data to create such a feature is not easily sustained and there are multiple departments in multiple locations. I would like to see if more people request this feature.
The latest map has some of this. Departments are hard, but the search tool will continue to be refined to include more information.
