Third Party Access

Third party access allows students to give access to their account to another person, typically to parents. There are two different systems that allow access to several types of information:

  • PROXY access for Student and Financial Aid information (NEW June 2023 - replaces Third Party Access) allows you access to Student Records including Grades, Accounts Receivable information including Tax information, and some financial aid information.
  • Authorized Party Access with Nelnet allows you to access e-bills, make e-payments, set up a payment plan, and print remittance advice to mail payments.
Please review the additional information below for each system:
