Converting an organization into a user

It's not possible to convert an organization into a personal account, but you can create a new personal account and transfer the organization's repositories to it.

Note

After an account is deleted, the username at the time of deletion becomes unavailable for reuse for 90 days. To reuse an organization's username immediately, you must change the username before you delete the organization.

  1. Sign up for a new account on GitHub.
  2. Have the user's role changed to an owner.
  3. Sign in to the new personal account.
  4. Transfer each organization repository to the new personal account.
  5. Rename the organization to make the current username available.
  6. Rename the user to the organization's name.
  7. Delete the organization.
