Complete the Intake Survey

The first step to setting up your app is completing the intake survey. Tell us about yourself! Answers you provide are used to create tailored app content. You cannot access core platform features without completing the survey. After you’ve completed the survey, use the following pages in this guide to set up other features.

Make an Appointment

• To schedule appointments, click the purple "Appointments" icon on the left navigation menu and answer questions about your preferred service, date, time, and location.
• You can also view available drop-in times or request appointment times for your preferred service.
• Your Success Team (e.g., assigned advisors, instructors) may also request you meet with them. When this happens, you receive an appointment invitation where you only need to choose a time that works for you!

Set Up Notifications

   Choose the "Settings" button on your app or on the desktop site.
2. Select "Notification Settings". Scroll to find content categories like Upcoming To-Dos and Events, Personal Reminders and Study Buddies.

   • Note: You can select as many notification methods as desired, but you receive multiple notifications if you choose more than one.
