How do I sign up for billing text messages?

Opt In for Billing Text Messages

  1. Log in to the Student Account Center.
  2. Under Finances, select View Account/Make Payment.
    • You may need to complete the Payment Responsibility Agreement. If you've already accepted it for the current term, you won't be asked to do it again until the next term.
  3. Select Notifications.
  4. Opt to receive text messages by selecting Yes.
  5. Enter the mobile number where you'd like to receive text messages.
  6. Select your mobile carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.). 
  7. Click Save.

Note: This feature only enables text notifications for payment and billing activity, not other University communications.

If you need additional information, contact the Office of Financial Solutions.
