All members of the University community with a valid UVA email are automatically enrolled to receive emergency emails, and a text message to those who have registered their mobile phone number with the University during orientation or onboarding. They can also add emails and mobile phone numbers to their UVA Alerts account of family/contacts. UVA members can receive desktop pop-up alerts by installing Alertus.
