Your degree,
laid out clearly.
Pathway turns requirements, prerequisites, and registration chaos into a clear semester-by-semester plan - so you always know exactly what to take, when to take it, and what it counts for.
Available for iPhone, iPad, and Mac · Free, with an optional Pathway+ upgrade
Everything between you and graduation, organized
Built for real university catalogs - actual requirements, actual courses, actual rules. Not a spreadsheet with extra steps.
Plan every semester
Lay out your entire degree - four years, three, or five. Courses carry credits, prerequisites, and requirement tags with them.
Live requirement tracking
See every requirement each course satisfies, the moment you add it. Gen eds, majors, minors - the gaps show themselves.
Your week, at a glance
Turn any semester into a weekly calendar, catch time conflicts instantly, and push it to your calendar in one tap.
Exam & transfer credit
Enter scores once and watch credit apply itself across requirements - with duplicate awards deduped automatically.
Grades & GPA
Log grades as they land and track your GPA on your school's scale, semester by semester.
Prereq radar
Overloaded terms and missing prerequisites get flagged before registration does it for you.

Do I need an account?
No. There's nothing to sign up for. Your plan lives on your device and syncs across all your devices in real time through your personal cloud storage.
What happens to my data?
It stays yours. No third-party ads, no cross-app tracking, no analytics SDKs, and nothing is ever sold. The AI features run entirely on-device. Read the full privacy policy.
Is Pathway a replacement for my advisor?
No - it's the thing that makes advising meetings productive. Pathway works hard to keep data accurate, but always confirm requirements with your advisor and your school's official site before registering.
