Banner 9 upgrade timeline

In alignment with the University of the Pacific's priority to build a unified university, Pacific Technology worked with several business units to identify an appropriate date to deploy Banner 9. The universitywide launch will happen on Saturday, Nov. 10, 2018. The new Banner 9 software will help faculty and staff seamlessly perform daily tasks.

This Banner 9 upgrade brings all the modules to a current version, helping us to maintain current industry standards, and offers a better experience when accessing information. The new version offers enhanced usability and more efficiencies including:

  • Easier and more user-friendly navigation. 
  • Fewer vulnerabilities and more robust reporting features. 
  • An enhanced interface with streamlined processes for day-to-day operations.

Prior to the Banner 9 upgrade, there will be an upgrade to Banner 8 modules to help the Office of Financial Aid meet an earlier delivery date for financial aid packages and acceptance letters for admitted students. This first implementation will be on Sept. 22.
