Changes to UF’s Course Request System
November 15, 2018

Upgrades to the Student Information System (part of the COMPASS project) changes how to request and create courses. UF’s course request system is now a self-service portal in myUFL. The navigation is:
myUFL → Main Menu → Student Information System → Online Learning → Canvas Course Request
Course creators can request a cross-listed course site, a course site for every section, merging of specific sections of a course, or to not include their course on Canvas. Course sites can be created as soon as the information is fully entered into the Registrar’s system up until 5:00 p.m. on January 3, 2019. After that deadline, all courses with no actions selected will be auto-created with a separate Canvas course site for each section. Note that support staff requesting course sites on behalf of instructors will need the UF_SA_CANVAS_CRSE_REQUST_ADMIN security role. UFIT has tutorials available showing the most common course request scenarios:
■ Course Navigation – Faculty
■ Course Navigation – Support Staff
■ General Course Request, Re-naming a Course Site, and Excluding a Course from Canvas
■ Combining Sections
■ Cross-Listing Courses
Transcripts for each video along with additional information about these changes will be available on UFIT’s Course Request Process page. Please do not hesitate to contact the e-Learning support team (352-392-HELP, option 3, or learning-support@ufl.edu) with any questions. We are here to help!
