ShareLink

ShareLink provides secure access to those parents, employers, and other interested third parties a student has authorized to view the student’s academic and financial information. The student must use MyBU Student to sponsor a login account for each person who will have access. The student also specifies the information available to each party and controls the duration of access.

Benefits

Sharing functionality and specific information with student-sponsored individuals allows the business to reduce administrative overhead by enabling a wider audience to access pertinent data and perform specific actions. Currently, students can share their transcript preview, proof of enrollment, and student account bill, which can be paid online.

Key Features

• Current students can use MyBU Student to sponsor login accounts for people who are not affiliated with Boston University, to provide access to specified information. Account setup is fully automated.
• Students have full control over the specification of information available to each party, and can revoke access at any time with immediate effect.

Requirements

• To access data via MyBU Student, a login account is required; data shown depends on how the student has set up the Guest Access account.

• Students wishing to share their information or modify existing access should use the Manage Guests menu item in their MyBU Student Dashboard.
