You've Asked. We're Here to Answer.

Q: How does Workday Student interact with HCM and FIN? 

A: Student, FIN, and HCM are all part of the Workday system and do not require logging in to separate systems to use each module. Workday Student seamlessly integrates with HCM and FIN, allowing the University to achieve enrollment and revenue goals while supporting student learning.
