Online Course Evaluations

NOTE: Due to ongoing security considerations and the potential risks associated with our legacy course evaluation system, Franklin College is in the process of transitioning to a campus‑wide platform. This means the system is in "read-only" mode. 

The UGA Registrar's office has announced the implementation of a new campus-wide online student course evaluation system which will be used for Spring 2026. If you have questions about this new system please email courseevals@uga.edu.

Data Migration Timelines

Before April 30, 2026

As part of this new roll out, Franklin College will be officially decommissioning our online Student Course Evaluation system on April 30th. As part of this transition, we encourage all interested units and faculty to log in and export any data they may need for strategic planning or internal review. 

May 1 - April 30, 2027

If you do not download your data before April 30, you may access bulk exports between May 1, 2026 – April 30, 2027 by requesting access from the Franklin OIT Helpdesk.

After May 1, 2027

All data will be transferred to UGA Archives for the remainder of its six year retention period. After this period, it will be permanently expunged in accordance with records retention guidelines. Access to these data will be available through UGA Archives and Records.
