Students: Manage Permissions For a Third Party

Students are able to grant third-party access to their personal and academic information by setting up permissions in Workday. For example, this allows trusted parties to:

  • Make a payment
  • View financial aid packages
  • View account activity (e.g., account transactions like charges, payments, financial aid, refunds, etc.)
  • View student statements
  • View student classes
  • View student grades
  • Generate an unofficial transcript (typically used for verification, such as car insurance discounts)

Within Workday, students can create a third-party user name for a trusted individual and select the access they wish to share.

Password resets

Contact the IT Solution Center to reset a third-party account password. Students are not able to reset a third-party password — do not delete and re-add the third-party account.

Friends and Family: Set Up a Third-Party Account

Family members should not use student Net-ID logins to access Workday information. Students can grant third-party access in Workday by setting up account permissions for trusted parties.

Step-by-step instructions

Logging in

  • Third-party logins have a specific Workday link
  • The Workday app does not work for third-party access (use a browser)
