Student Portal Important Information

Important information notices within PowerFAIDS Student Portal allow you to create and customize any text you want students to review when first navigating to various areas of the portal. Because you may want to use the same language across multiple years, we have made these notices easy to copy.

The important information feature in Student Portal makes highlighting details you want to provide to students when they first access a page in the portal easier. Some advantages to using important information notices include:

  • Tie to an academic year: An important information notice can be associated with a specific academic year so you can customize your messaging with year-specific information.

  • Provide certain information once: There may be certain information you want to display to a student once, but don’t want them to see every time they view a page. Important information gives you the ability to have information displayed once, get the student to acknowledge they’ve read it, and then it won’t display for them again.
