Background of the Study
Academic counseling plays a critical role in the success of university students by helping them navigate their academic journeys, make informed decisions, and improve their performance. Traditional academic counseling relies on face-to-face interactions, which, though valuable, can be time-consuming and inconsistent in addressing the unique needs of each student (Garba & Mohammed, 2024). As universities grow and student populations increase, the demand for personalized academic counseling has become more challenging to meet using traditional methods. AI-based systems offer a promising solution by providing personalized, data-driven recommendations tailored to each student's academic profile, strengths, and weaknesses (Oluwaseun & Daniel, 2025). These AI systems can analyze students' academic histories, predict future performance, and provide real-time advice on course selection, study habits, and career paths (Olaoye et al., 2023).
Federal University, Wukari, in Wukari LGA, Taraba State, is an ideal case study for exploring the potential of AI-based academic counseling systems. The university has a diverse student population, many of whom face challenges in making informed academic choices due to limited guidance and counseling resources. Implementing an AI-based counseling system can improve student retention, academic success, and overall student satisfaction (Yusuf & Haruna, 2024). By incorporating machine learning algorithms, the system can continuously adapt to individual students' academic needs, offering targeted advice and interventions to enhance their academic journeys.
Statement of the Problem
At Federal University, Wukari, traditional academic counseling methods are unable to provide the level of personalized attention that students require, leading to suboptimal academic outcomes for many students. The existing counseling system is overwhelmed by the growing student population, and students often receive generalized advice that does not consider their unique academic challenges and strengths. This study aims to develop an AI-based academic counseling system that will offer personalized, data-driven recommendations to students, improving academic performance and student engagement.
