This form allows faculty to request read-only access to archived courses from past semesters that are not currently available in Brightspace. Approved access allows users to view and retrieve course content, enrollment records, grades, and student submissions.
Please note: If you need to transfer course material to Brightspace, please submit a request through our Course Copy Request service form instead.
For more information about course retention and archival timelines, refer to the Course Removal and Migration Policy.
This form allows faculty to request assistance with transferring course content from one course to another. Faculty can also complete their own course copies at any time, provided they have the necessary access to both courses in Brightspace.
Important Notice: Course Copy Requests must be submitted no later than one week before the official start of the semester. Requests received after the deadline will require the faculty to use the alternative option. Faculty may complete their own course copy at any time. For steps on how to complete a course copy on your own, please refer to our Course Copy Resource.
A Course merge combines multiple course sections into a single, unified course. In this process, one course will be designated as the Parent Course, while the other sections will be designated as Child Courses.
In a merged course, students will only see the Parent Course information. It is recommended that instructors notify students once the merge is complete and provide clear instructions to access the Parent Course.
Important Note: Course merge request must be submitted at least one week before the official start of the semester and before any student submissions are made.

Note: Please allow 1-3 business days for this request to be completed.
This form aims to request a temporary Brightspace account for new faculty and staff hires who don’t have access to their UTRGV account yet. Faculty will get access to the Learning Management System via a temporary account until their official UTRGV account gets created. Once their official account is created, the temporary account will be disabled.
This form allows faculty and staff to request Brightspace enrollments for UTRGV users who are not officially listed in ASSIST, or to enroll users in Brightspace organizations.
Please Note: For official ASSIST courses, the Student role is only available to users who are officially enrolled. Auditing a course does not grant access to online platforms such as Brightspace, nor does it permit participation in exams, graded assignments, or class discussions. For more information, please refer to our Enrollment policies.
