NOTIFICATIONS

You will receive a confirmation email when you have granted, changed, or revoked access for a guest.

Your guests will also receive a notification email when access is added, changed, or revoked.

NOTE: Guests will initially receive two emails--one with their username and a second email containing a link to access a temporary password. The guest MUST clear their cache, use a different browser, or use a different computer than the student when clicking on the password retrieval link or they may encounter the following error:

How to access and login into PASS
When a student requests access for a guest in PASS, the guest receives an email with a link to a temporary password. After logging into PASS for the first time, the guest is encouraged to change this temporary password. This document outlines the process to follow.
​​​​​​​Guest User Access allows students to give a 3rd party (i.e. parent, spouse, and/or employer) access to selected features within PASS. Guests will receive their own username and password which will allow them to log directly into PASS and access the information granted by the student.
