Delegated Access allows UofL students to give a parent, family member, or other trusted individual permission to view and discuss certain student financial account information with the university while protecting the student’s privacy.
Students must initiate Delegated Access. Through delegated access, students can authorize someone they trust to assist with navigating their UofL finances and communicate with the university about authorized financial information.
Students remain in control of their information and can update or remove delegated access at any time.
