Windows 11 Upgrade in Fall 2024

IT-SLE will upgrade Student Life & Enrollment computers to Windows 11 this Fall.

The upgrade will occur over several weeks, with clusters of departments scheduled for each weekly roll out period. The Windows 11 update will be distributed to workstations over the weekend and IT-SLE will be available for dedicated support the following week. The first round of upgrades will begin on Sunday, September 29th.

Communications will be sent one week prior to the rollout of each update so users can prepare. We anticipate minimal impact since the update does not wipe the computer, it is an in-place upgrade. Users will notice a redesigned interface and may need to re-log in to Office applications like Outlook, Teams and OneDrive.

Option to Self-Install

The Windows 11 update will also be available starting on September 1, 2024, for users to self-install from on-campus locations. IT-SLE will provide instructions for accessing and installing the update, which takes approximately 40 minutes.
