25Live will replace Astra as the University’s class and room scheduling system on Tuesday, June 17, 2025.
There are a few things we’d like to make you aware of as we prepare for this change:
- Events scheduled in your departmentally managed rooms in Astra will not be moving over into 25Live. Any event scheduled in Astra happening on June 17th or later, will need to be re-entered in 25Live.
- How can you find your scheduled events in Astra?
- Go to the Events tab in Astra
- In filters:
- Set start date to June 17th, 2025
- Select the rooms you schedule to find a list of scheduled events in those rooms.
- Export to Excel to have your list.
- Training for 25Live is available. This training is online and required to maintain access to 25Live.
- Astra will become view-only at the end of the day on Friday, June 13. This is to ensure a smooth data transition.
- If you have any internal materials (e.g., webpages, handbooks) that refer to Astra, please ensure they are updated to reflect 25Live. Upon launch, z.umn.edu/25live will be the replacement link. Current Astra z-links will be redirected.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact ocmsched@umn.edu.
