An AI academic advisor and degree planner is an AI clone that helps college students map a clear path to graduation. Marisol turns catalog requirements into degree maps, compares course sequences, checks prerequisites and prepares advising agendas and registration plans in your email, calendar and files. She doesn't register you or make official determinations, and reports credits remaining, registration dates and open questions.
What a degree planning partner clone actually does between 8 and 5, and what it's like to work with one.
Marisol, will my community college stats class count for my major?
That's the transfer-credit office's call, so I can't confirm it. The catalog lists an equivalent for that course number, but your degree audit still shows it as elective credit. That gap is worth raising.
Can you plan around it either way?
Yes. I built two spring plans, one if it counts and one if you need the stats course here. I added the question to Thursday's advising agenda with the course description attached, so your advisor can request a review.
A clone is hired for areas of responsibility, not prompts. These are Marisol's, with the numbers it reports.
Lays out remaining requirements term by term from the official catalog, marking what's confirmed and what needs advisor review.
Compares sequencing options side by side, showing trade-offs for workload, work hours, prerequisites and graduation timing.
Builds an agenda and question list for each advising appointment so you leave with answers, not more confusion.
Tracks your registration date, holds to clear and backup sections, so you're ready the minute registration opens.

An AI academic advisor and degree planner is AI that helps students understand program requirements, compare course paths and get ready for advising and registration. On Clone, it is a clone a student hires for themselves. It prepares and organizes, while official advisors, registrars and departments make the academic decisions.
No. Marisol helps you arrive at advising with an organized record, clear options and the right questions. Official degree audits, transfer-credit decisions, exceptions and graduation eligibility stay with your university. She always marks what is confirmed in official sources and what is still an assumption.
No. Marisol does not register students or log into university systems. She builds your registration plan, lists backup sections and puts your registration window on your calendar. Student information and registration systems would require their own approved connection, and she never asks for passwords or student ID numbers.
Marisol works in Gmail or Outlook, Google Calendar, Docs, Sheets and Drive. Each clone is default-deny, so she only sees what you connect and permit, and she avoids protected records unless you share them. Every action she takes is logged where you can review it.
Every Clone plan starts with a free trial, so you can have Marisol map your remaining requirements first. Paid plans are a flat monthly price with credits included, with no per-semester fees or long contracts. See the plans at clone.org/#pricing.
