Consumer Zoom accounts and paid user / department accounts, non-managed domains prior to consolidation.

Institution Zoom accounts
- Noticeable change
- When user goes to https://zoom.us/ and attempts to log in, they will:

When will the consolidation take place?
Each UW institution (except for UW Madison) is choosing when to consolidate their users into the new Zoom instance.
If you are part of UW Milwaukee, UW River Falls, UW La Crosse or UW Superior, your institution is managing the Zoom account and will consolidate your account on a planned date.
For other UW institutions (except for UW Madison), you can manually switch accounts by logging into https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us today and follow the process above for Consumer Zoom accounts and paid user / department accounts, non-managed domains prior to consolidation. Otherwise, you can wait for the planned consolidation date which will follow the Institution Zoom accounts process.
If you have a personal or department paid account, then on the consolidation date, you will always follow the Consumer Zoom accounts and paid user / department accounts, non-managed domains section. Once users are consolidated into the new Zoom instance, you will be prompted to update your account and redirected to https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us.
The dates for consolidation are below. They will be updated as dates are finalized.
