Windows 10 To Windows 11 Upgrades For University-Owned Devices

As Microsoft discontinues support for Windows 10 later this year, all University-owned devices running Windows operating systems are forced to upgrade to Windows 11. To ensure you continue to receive important security updates, performance enhancements, and ongoing support, CCIT engineers will be upgrading all University-owned devices currently running Windows 10 to Windows 11

What This Means for You: 

  • Automatic Upgrade: CCIT will handle the upgrade process for you, minimizing any disruption. 
  • Improved Security & Performance: Windows 11 is designed with modern security features and performance improvements to keep your systems running smoothly. 
  • New Features: Enjoy a refreshed interface, productivity enhancements, and better support for hybrid work environments. 

Upgrade Timeline:

A phased approach to upgrades begins on May 15, 2025 and will continue on a weekly basis through August 28. Impacted users will receive an email from CCIT with their scheduled upgrade window. 

If you have any questions or would like to discuss your upgrade timeline, feel free to reach out to your local IT Consultant, or email ithelp@clemson.edu.
