Course Evaluations
Access evaluation tasks through Canvas or by logging into Blue directly. Task availability varies by session per the evaluations dates section of this page.
We are in the process of upgrading the Blue course evaluation software. Upgrade activities are expected to run January 5 – 9, 2026. Blue may not be available during this timeframe.
Blue 9 Upgrade
Access section-instructor reports before the upgrade (scheduled January 5 – 9, 2026) or after. Preview the Blue 9 reports page and new workflows from the Blue 9 upgrade preview page in the knowledge base.
Evaluation Dates
Individual Section-Instructor reports are available on the dates specified for each term. We have an enrollment threshold of 5 students. You won’t be able to access reports if fewer than 5 students are enrolled.
Remaining reports are available after the last session of the term ends (typically a concurrent enrollment or a special session) and grades are posted.

Specialty reports for Fall 2025 will be available mid-January 2026 (no later than January 24) through the new, Blue 9 interface. Preview the new interface and new workflow from the Blue 9 upgrade preview page in the knowledge base.
Spring 2026
Specialty reports for Spring 2026 will be available mid-June 2026 (no later than June 13).
