The digitalization of Student Affairs and Services (SAS) in higher education has accelerated in response to demands for efficiency, equity, and resilience. However, many institutions remain characterized by fragmented practices and uneven adoption across units. This article examines how SAS digitalization can move from isolated models of practice to an integrated institutional action framework. Drawing on a workshop with deans and administrators of a private higher education institution, the study synthesizes identified challenges, existing initiatives, and opportunities for collaboration. The discussion situates findings within the frameworks of organizational learning, digital transformation theory, and student development perspectives, underscoring the role of equity and inclusion in shaping institutional digital strategies. The article concludes with a proposed roadmap that positions SAS digitalization not merely as a technical upgrade but as a strategic reform for student-centered governance.
