My UNC
UNC is excited to announce the merger of Ursa and MyUNC into a single platform.
In Summer 2024, UNC introduced a new mobile app called MyUNC (URL: MyUNC Mobile App to Improve Student Experience – University of Northern Colorado). The initial launch of MyUNC was designed to replace the legacy UNC Mobile app. Since that time, UNC has been working to bring the functionality currently found in Ursa into MyUNC, consolidating key information, services, and systems into one modern platform.
Beginning March 12, UNC IM&T, in partnership with departments across campus, will start transitioning the systems currently connected to Ursa into the new MyUNC environment. This transition is expected to continue through March 20, the end of spring break. During this period—from the close of business on March 12 through March 20—both Ursa and MyUNC will be unavailable to students while UNC completes the migration and verifies that all systems are working properly.
My UNC Go Live Timeline
March 11 Scale back functions of URSA/Banner
March 12 Turn off Ursa/Banner/Insight after business hours
March 13 Deliver Banner, Degree Works, & Xtender backups to Ellucian
March 16 Validation of SaaS starts

This migration will impact several campus services currently accessed through Ursa, including Banner Admin Pages, SSB, Xtender, and Insight reporting.
Once the transition work is complete, IM&T will redirect ursa.unco.edu to the new site, my.unco.edu, to support a smooth shift to the updated platform.
