FAU alert

What is it?

FAU Alert is the University's alert and notification system that informs the University community of potential or actual emergency events or threats. The University recognizes that no single method of communication will reach everyone, everywhere, every time. Therefore, FAU Alert comprises several tools, including blast e-mails, text messages, call-outs, outdoor warning sirens, and more. See the "More about FAU Alert" section below. 

Depending on your mobile phone/data plan, your carrier may charge you a fee to receive FAU Alert messages when modules such as text messaging are utilized.

Please direct any questions regarding the FAU Alert System to  em@fau.edu

Non-FAU Entity Alerting

What is it?

A non-FAU entity for this purpose is defined as an entity that provides frequent services for FAU campuses, and therefore has staff on campus regularly; however, it is limited to those entities that have the same staff on campus regularly.

FAU provides a portal through which each appropriate non-FAU entity contact may manage their contact information individually. This is accessible via a secure link shared upon approval by a non-FAU entity.

How Does My Entity Sign Up?

If your entity wishes to receive FAU emergency alerts via the call-out, email, and/or text message modules, please complete the    Non-FAU Entity Request Form   .  If your non-FAU entity fits the criteria, you will be contacted with instructions   to complete the registration process.
