What If I Forget My Username or Password?
If you change email addresses or forget your password, contact your student. Only the student can reset passwords or change the email address associated with your access. When your student resets your password or your email address, you will receive a new temporary single-use password and link similar to when you claimed your initial access.

What If The Information I Want/Need Is Not Visible to Me?
If the information is included in the list above of records that are eligible for allowed access, you may contact your student and ask for authorizations to be updated. Some information (tests, homework, quizzes, assignments, HIPAA protected information, etc.) is not available through Proxy Access.

Can I Change My Student's Schedule?
No, guests with proxy access are not able to make any changes to student schedules.

Are There Records That A Proxy Cannot See?
Yes. View-only access is limited by vendor functionality, the access your student grants you, and university policy. Emails, texts, tests, homework, quizzes, and HIPPA protected records are examples of records you are not allowed to see.
