Critical to Know
Question Personalization (QP) tasks open 21 days before a course evaluation period begins and close the day before student tasks open. Session-specific dates are outlined on the Course Evaluation website.
Blue supports copying personalized questions between evaluations in the current term or from evaluations held in the last term (e.g., if personalizing questions for Fall 2025, you can copy questions from your Summer 2025 evaluation).
To reuse questions from multiple past terms, refer to the corresponding course evaluation reports or preview the past course evaluations and copy/paste the questions into your course evaluation for the current term.
