Update as of Sept 29, 2025
Self Service Banner 9 - Faculty and Advisor Portal
As previously communicated, Ellucian—the vendor behind Banner—is requiring all institutions to transition from Banner 8 Self-Service (SSB8) to Banner Self-Service 9. (SSB9) This mandate comes as Ellucian is ending full support for SSB8: the system will move to sustaining support on October 1, 2025, and will reach End of Support on January 1, 2026. After September 30, 2025, no regulatory updates will be provided, and only limited support for critical vulnerabilities will be available.
Due to this vendor-driven change, all institutions using Banner must adopt Self-Service 9, which includes an updated interface, enhanced features, and improved security.
In response, UST has finalized its transition plans. As of September 1, 2025, the SSB8 Faculty and Advisor portals have been fully discontinued and removed from Classic Murphy.
