What is StFX Alerts?
StFX Alerts is the university's emergency alert notification system. In the event of an emergency or other urgent situation, time-sensitive alerts are sent to members of the campus community who have opted to receive them. Alerts are also sent in the case of campus closures due to inclement weather.
You can opt to receive emergency alerts via text, email (a different one than your StFX email) and/or voice message.
How Do I Sign Up?
Visit the StFX Alerts portal and sign up. Please note you do not need to use your StFX email account to register. Your StFX Alerts account is separate from StFX, and will have a different password. You can log in to your alerts.stfx.ca account at any time to update contact information, your alert preferences, and/or unsubscribe.
How will StFX Alerts be used?
StFX Alerts will only be sent in emergency situations or during instances where time-sensitive updates are required (such as when campus is closed due to inclement weather.) Any message that does not meet these criteria will not be distributed via StFX Alerts.
This system is in addition to (and does not replace) other university communications tools like campus-wide email, social media, and updates via local media partners.
