U-M Emergency Alerts
Issue
Hot to update phone/text numbers for U-M Emergency Alerts.
Resolution
U-M Emergency Alert system keeps students, faculty, and staff informed about major active emergencies on campus. This system will be activated by the Division of Public Safety and Security (DPSS).
- The phone numbers associated with your account can be changed or updated at: http://alerts.umich.edu/
- Active student, faculty member, or staff member may enroll up to three landline numbers to receive a voice message call and may also add up to two additional mobile phone numbers on their account.
- This is recommended for adding family members or friends.
- If you have active student or employee affiliations with more than one U-M campus (Ann Arbor, Dearborn, or Flint), you will be automatically enrolled to receive U-M Emergency Alerts sent from each of the campuses with which you are affiliated.
- If you do not have an active affiliation with another campus, you may enroll to receive alerts from additional campuses. Select the “Opt-In Lists” tab near the top of the page to subscribe to additional campus alerts.
- Individuals who are unaffiliated with the university may receive alerts on their mobile device by downloading the U-M Public Safety App or the Michigan App and enabling notifications.
