The University of Oregon Information Services sent out a university-wide email on Dec. 4, 2025, announcing its intention to replace DuckWeb, the current student portal system, with a new system called MyUO.
MyUO features a “modern design with clear navigation, mobile-friendly pages and accessibility improvements,” according to the email.
The portal will be used for student functions such as class registration and the employee dashboard. The announcement also stated that features will continue to be “added and updated” beyond the upcoming year.
UO spokesperson Angela Seydel, on behalf of the UO Information Department, said MyUO was designed to be a more modern and accessible information system than DuckWeb.
“MyUO is designed to make your day-to-day university tasks easier. It offers a fresh, modern look, powerful search, secure single sign-on, and significantly improved mobile and ADA accessibility,” Seydel said in an email statement to The Daily Emerald.
This change is in addition to other shifts in UO’s digital assets, including a specific change to Schedule Builder that occurred just before winter term registration. Because of the changes, including changing the registration cart to pre-built plans, there were instructional videos included to help students navigate the differences.
The MyUO homepage features the Ducks on Track graduation checklist, time and attendance and the employee dashboard for university employees, personal information, news and the ability to check in with an advisor. It has different tabs for different resources, including academics where students can access their schedules and student finances, where students can access their billing accounts.
MyUO is already live, but both systems will continue to be used until DuckWeb is fully replaced. The email also states that the faculty menu will remain on DuckWeb until the transition is fully completed.
