City University of Seattle’s administrative applications for Student, HR, Payroll and Finance will be unavailable part of this weekend for maintenance. This is a planned monthly maintenance that ensures the stability and availability of our administrative PeopleSoft systems. These systems will be offline beginning Saturday January 18th at 4:00 p.m. PT. Maintenance will be completed no later than 2:00 p.m. PT on Sunday, January 19th. This outage will affect students’ ability to register for classes and access their records through the Student Center. Teaching faculty will not have access to the Faculty Center for attendance and grading.

Blackboard, email and library services will remain available.

Effective Fall quarter, students in the U.S. may use a vendor of their own choosing to purchase the resources listed on their Course Resource Guides, accessible by clicking the Find Your Textbook button on the library homepage or the Course Overviews and Resources link on the my.cityu.edu portal.

Required and recommended online resources that are available to students at no cost are listed on Course Resource Guides (available 24/7) or in Blackboard courses (available 3 days prior to the start of class).

The move away from a dedicated online bookstore is a direct result of the evolving textbook marketplace and buying patterns of CityU students.
