Banner Implementation


In June 2001, Truman State University signed a purchase agreement with SunGard Higher Education (formerly SCT) for their Banner® Software products.   Banner® software will replace existing University systems for student information, financial aid, finance and human resources.  Implementation of the Luminis portal is also a part of this project.

The new system will be designed to enhance University services to students, faculty and staff in the areas of:

  • Admissions
  • Budget
  • Event Calendaring
  • Finance
  • Financial Aid
  • Human Resources/Payroll
  • Purchasing
  • Registration
  • Reporting
  • Student Accounts
  • Student Advising
  • Student Records
  • Student Residence Life

Included in the new system are: World Wide Web access for admission application, student registration and enrollment verification, grade reporting, financial aid and account status, budget and requisition status; automated degree audit to support academic advising; and similar enhancements that affect virtually all of the student services areas.

The implementation of the Banner® systems will take place over a 36-month time period and will involve many University staff, faculty and students at different phases of the project.
