Welcome to the AppLEAP Project

Appalachian State University is participating with 14 other campuses in the UNC system to migrate (or leap) from our aging administrative application systems to the current technology products. Our current vendor, SunGard Higher Education, provides Banner as an enterprise application suite of software for higher education. The software is based on current technology database tools accessible through the web and provides solutions for all major components on the campus, including: Finance, University Advancement, Human Resources, Student Services and Financial Aid.

Project Objectives

  • Replace an aging administrative system with a highly integrated tool which is consistently and continuously available

  • Increase efficiency utilizing available UNC system collaborative efforts

  • Share common business practices that will optimize implementation efforts

  • Provide web-based access for all users, with greater scalability, sustainability and enhanced information retrieval.
