Introducing ACORN
ACORN (Accessible Campus Online Resource Network) is the University of Toronto’s new online Student Registration and Administration System. This system replaced the old ROSI online Student Information Service. In order to promote the new system and inform staff and students at U of T, a website and promotional posters were needed.
Many students at U of T found that ROSI was difficult to navigate. The solution to this problem was a more simplistic, straight-forward program. Therefore, ACORN’s promotional posters and introductory website were designed with this in mind.
The design team at U of T wanted a simplistic, playful approach introducing staff and students to ACORN. It was important that the new program felt welcoming and user friendly.
