On the weekend of June 5th Banner will be upgraded from Banner7 to Banner8. Administrative Systems has been working hard over the last 6 months with many offices and departments to test the new version. We are confident that the upgrade will be successful but it is impossible to test everything in a complicated system such as Banner so please be on the lookout for any problems during the week of the 7th and report them immediately to the Help Desk.

The system will be open to administrative offices for testing on Monday the 7th but Self Service Banner will not be available to students and faculty until the end of the working day on Monday.
