Abstract
This paper discusses the University of Maryland, College Park approach to placing services to students directly in their hands. Characteristics of the Web made it a logical platform for application development and implementation. Universally accessible applications such as the Schedule of Classes and a schedule maker (Venus), secure downloaded systems such as Grade Inquiry and Student Account Inquiry and Payment, and real-time applications such as Drop/Add and Schedule Adjustment are all becoming available on the Web.
