Introduction
A student or other UCO account holder can provide and control access for another individual to specific portions of their UCO account without sharing their UCO account username and password. A UCO Account Holder can give access to multiple individuals for a variety of account resources including their Academic Transcript, Account Summary, Student Schedules, Student Grades, Financial Information, and more. For example, a UCO student may provide parent/guardian access to grade information and/or allow a spouse access to view and pay their account.
Please do not share your personal account access information (aka, your password) with another individual!
UCONNECT - Proxy Access
Setting up access to a UCO account for a proxy requires the UCO account holder to assign a proxy and the proxy to set up their account access. The following steps are broken into two sections; the first for the UCO account holder's steps and the second for steps taken by the individual proxy.
UCO Account Holder
- Log in to your account at uconnect.uco.edu
- Locate the Additional Contact Info widget
- Click the "Manage Proxy (3rd-Party) access to your account information" link
- On the Proxy Management screen, select Add New.
- Enter your proxy's contact information with a current email address and select the areas of your account to which you are providing access. Click Submit.
- Your proxy's account will show as "inactive" until they complete their portion of the process.
- You can add, remove, or edit proxy access at any time from the Proxy Management screen.
Proxy Account Setup
Once the UCO Account Holder has added you as a proxy, you will receive two emails from the system to the email address submitted by the account holder. These emails will be used to complete your proxy access.
- Access your email account and locate the email from proxy_access@uco.edu, subject line: New Proxy Identity
- Open the email and click the link to the proxy access login webpage.
- You will also need the initial password provided by the system. This will be located in a second email from proxy_access@uco.edu, subject line: New Proxy Confirmation.
- Copy the initial password provided to log in to the proxy access system for the first time.
- You will be prompted to provide a new password. Be sure to include the email account provided by the UCO account holder and the initial password from the system. Add your own, unique password and click Submit.
- You will be prompted to enter your email address and new password, then click Sign In.
- From your proxy access page (https://ssb.uco.edu/StudentSelfService/ssb/proxy/proxyAction), you can select the UCO account holder's name and specific area of their account to view.
