After many, many hours of work by hundreds of people across campus, the first phase of college reorganization is ready to launch on July 1. The College Reorganization Committee would like to take a moment to let the Clemson Family know what will take place this week as well as some additional transitions that will occur in August.
On July 1, the new college names, organization and fiscal budgets go into effect. However, the academic systems will not change over until after August graduation, which will be the last graduation using the five-college and one stand-alone school structure.

On July 1, the following IT systems will transition to using the new seven-college structure.

Website launch information (July 1 launch)
Late Thursday night (June 30), website managers will begin publishing the Clemson college and department websites affected by reorganization. All old websites will be archived and deleted from the server. Redirects will be put into place sending users who have bookmarked the old website to the new URL.
For example, anyone who goes to clemson.edu/caah/communication-studies will be directed to the department’s new website at clemson.edu/cbshs/departments/communication. Or, anyone who goes to clemson.edu/cbbs will be redirected to clemson.edu/business.
The new college URLs can be found on the ClemsonForward website, under the “Communications” dropdown.
How you can help in this transition:
- Please make sure you are updating your saved bookmarks in your web browser so they point to the new website URL.
- If you manage any print materials for your program or department, please make sure you check with your college communicator or send an email to ows@g.clemson.edu to ensure any website URL you are publishing is correct and updated.
- If you maintain a lab or program website or a personal web space, please make sure to update all references to college names and URLs for those colleges whose names have changed.
- If you run into any website issues, please email ows@g.clemson.edu.
