> 📝 The below information only applies to course copy and course combine requests. If you only need to **create a new non-class site**, use the following link to [proceed directly to the HuskyCT Course Request form](https://id.atlassian.com/login/saml/start?connection=saml-ea571609-ab76-4249-82f3-51ca94cc5d7c&email=noreply@uconn.edu&application=jira&continue=https://uconn.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/group/1/create/1583).

Based on the first phase of the Ultra transition in Fall 2024, HuskyCT admins learned that a direct conversion of an Original course to Ultra Course View may result in some issues that require further remediation throughout the semester. We recommend that you build your new Ultra course from scratch. You can copy pieces of content from your Original courses if needed.

<summary>Converting to Ultra (via Course Copy/Request Form)</summary>

Converting an existing Original course to Ultra is only recommended for faculty:

- Whose Original course version uses a simple/basic design and does not use many Blackboard tools and features, especially in regards to exams.
- Who have a detailed understanding of the conversion process and are prepared to address conversion issues and content remediation.

It is the experience of the HuskyCT Admin team that faculty who converted their Original courses to Ultra experienced more issues than those who built their Ultra course content from scratch. Therefore, this is not a recommended process for most faculty.  The guide below documents the process should you decide that you would like to do this.

<summary>Course Copy Self Service</summary>

If you already have an Ultra course, you may copy your content to another course provided you meet all of the following requirements:

1. You are copying the contents of a single course to one other course
2. You do not require your course to be combined with another course

If you meet **all** of the above requirements, you may perform your own course copy using the following instructions:
