Login to using your Bowdoin username and password. Polaris can be accessed anywhere you have an Internet connection.

When you login, you will be in the Dept portal tab where you see QuickLinks to common Bowdoin websites and a Class List portlet which enables you to select any course from your department or program with the pull down menu and obtain the class list.

You will see a search box in which you can type a student’s ID or his/her first or last name. Note: You can type in all or part of the first or last name but not both, e.g., "John" or "Smith" but not "John Smith." Press return after typing in the search box, and the system will find students that match your criteria. From the results list, click on the student to view his/her details.

Alternately, you can select from the pull-down menu to the right of “Search” to see a list of your department’s majors or minors. From that list you can click on a student’s name to view their information. If you need to look up a student who has already graduated or resigned from the college, choose “All 91ÖÆƬ³§” from the menu.

Once you’ve selected a particular student, a new page for that student will display.

If you select a student who is not a major or minor in your department, information such as courses, status and grades will display as confidential. Below shows what the status portlet will look like for students who are not affiliated with your department.
