Student Self-Service Upgrade [1]
In fall 2025, the Campus Solutions Student Self-Service upgrade will enable University of Colorado students to move from the Student Center in their portal to browser pages on desktops, smartphones and tablets.
In addition to the minor changes to the Student Center used by CU Denver and UCCS students, new navigation menus and other changes will improve all CU student self-service pages from Financial Aid, Student Records, Registration, the Bursar's Office and the Law Bidding page for CU Law School students.
Why is the Student Self-Service navigation changing?
- Functionality hasn’t really changed, but the look and feel are very different.
- In the old version, clicking a Student Center icon opened a new frame within the student portal. Navigating within frames can be clunky and frustrating. Oracle, our Campus Solutions vendor, no longer supports navigating within frames and instead offers fluid navigation.
- The new design also meets accessibility requirements, allowing CU to stop using a third-party product for this purpose. The upgrade also allows CU to readily adopt any new functionality Oracle delivers, as new features will only be offered for fluid pages.
- Now, when a student clicks any Student Center icon, a new page opens in their browser instead of within a frame in the Student Center.
- While the improved navigation may be intuitive for most students, University Information Services provides the following visual guides to identify changes and new workflows.
