Central Applications Maintenance Release Schedule

We are utilizing a maintenance release schedule for our central applications. Instead of releasing individual fixes and improvements on an ad-hoc basis, we’ll bundle items together and release them in a more structured timeline. This approach will help us deliver improvements more consistently while minimizing disruptions to each application. It also provides clearer timelines for campuses and gives us a better way to prioritize and plan more effectively. All applications included in our Detailed Central Applications Service Catalog (above) will follow this schedule.

Maintenance Release Schedule

Starting in September 2025:

  • Central applications that have maintenance work completed will be released on the first Monday of each month.
    • If the first Monday is a legal holiday, we will release the next available business day.
  • These releases will mainly include non-urgent items that have been identified.
  • If high-level issues are identified, they will be addressed on an ad-hoc basis.
