Guests: How to Activate ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Guest Access
Creating a guest account is a two-step process. Once the student submits your credentials, you’ll receive an email listing the record components to which they've granted you access, along with a link to create your account.
Step 1: Authentication (For First-Time Users and Returning Guests)
- From the link contained in the email, visit the University of Colorado's page.
- You must connect your new ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä guest access account to an existing LinkedIn, Facebook or Google/Gmail that matches the email address where you received the first email. If you do not have such an account, you'll need to either create one or ask the student to establish your access using a different email address.
- Follow the on-screen steps to authenticate your social media login with ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä System Login (steps differ slightly for each social media provider).
- On the "Create Account" screen, enter the email address where you received the email and your first and last name. Click "Create Account."
- If a message tells you the email address is incorrect, click "OK," check your email address and try again.
- If an error message tells you an account already exists with that email address, you likely created a ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä guest account earlier with a different student. Click "OK," click on the "¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Guest Access" link on the logout page and log back in with your social ID.​ Accept the terms and conditions and provide the security key from the most recent email.
Returning guests: The authentication is complete, and the information for your additional student should be available in ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä guest access.
First-time users: If your authentication is successful, then you've finished the first step in creating your ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä guest access account. You'll receive a second email from do-not-reply@cu.edu with instructions to complete the final step.
Step 2: Activation (For First-Time Users Only)
Once you receive the second email, follow the steps below to activate your ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä guest account.
- Go to the University of Colorado's page.
- Sign in using the same LinkedIn, Facebook or Google/Gmail account you connected to your new account in the previous step.
- On the terms and conditions page:
- Read the terms and conditions, then click the checkbox next to "I accept terms and conditions."
- Enter the security key contained in the second email.
- Enter the email address to which the email was sent.
- Click "Submit."
- You now have access to the shared information center. To exit, click "Sign out."
