What can an Authorized User do?
To set up your parent/guardian as an Authorized User, please follow our easy instructions at the Authorized User Setup page!
To log into the Authorized User Portal, please enter your email (that your student set up) and your temporary password that was emailed to you (or your new password if you have reset it).
Please contact the Student Financial Services office by email or phone if you are having any issues logging in or making a payment as an Authorized User.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. According to this law, college students are considered responsible adults and are allowed to determine who will receive information about their education records/student account. Parents are NOT automatically granted access to their student's records without written consent of the student.
For more information on FERPA, please visit www.uwyo.edu/registrar/ferpa/
Student Financial Services, Financial Aid, and the Registrar each have separate FERPA forms that would need to be signed by the student before we may speak with anyone about their account.
**Setting up your parent or guardian as an Authorized User is the same as having an electronic FERPA form with the Student Financial Services office!**
You may choose that federal aid awarded to you is applied to:
All UW charges on your account including any minor prior-year charges (under $200)
OR
Only to UW tuition, fees, and room/board charges.
If you choose this second option, it will not cover student health charges, insurance charges, bookstore charges, IT print quota charges, interest or late charges, etc. Because your federal aid will not be applied to these other charges, you could receive a refund from your aid, but you may still owe a balance on your account.
If you have any questions regarding Title IV, or would like to cancel or modify your original agreement, please contact the office of Scholarships & Financial Aid by phone at 307-766-2116 or by email FinAid@uwyo.edu
To see what your original choice was, log into WyoWeb, click on Financial Aid, then Award, then Title IV Authorization.
For all non-international students, the deadline to make any changes to your insurance choice is the add/drop deadline.
For all international students, you are automatically enrolled in the student medical insurance each semester so you must waive the insurance by the add/drop deadline.
Please see Student Medical Insurance for more information.
