How do I add an authorized user to my account?
You can give someone you trust, like a parent, spouse, or family member, access to your student account by adding them as an authorized user in the Student Account Center. This lets them help manage your account, including viewing your balance and making payments.
Note: Making a person an authorized user, does not permit UMGC to discuss your account details with them. For more information, visit the Annual Notification of Rights under FERPA webpage.
Authorized users cannot:
- See your grades or class schedule
- Access your personal info
- View your saved payment methods
To add an authorized user:
- Log in to the Student Account Center.
- If prompted, accept the payment responsibility agreement.
- On your dashboard, find the Authorized Users section.
- Enter the person's email address.
- Choose the access they'll have.
- Read and accept the Authorized User Agreement.
- The person you added will receive an email with their own username and password to log in.
