ClassLink (MyVVC) Multi-Factor Authentication Coming April 21st

ClassLink (MyVVC) Multi-Factor Authentication Coming April 21st

 

Beginning on Monday April 21st, 2025 ITS will be requiring ClassLink Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for all students. 

MFA adds an extra safeguard to your online accounts by requiring a second step to verify your identity when logging in. This could be a temporary code sent to your phone, a notification from an authentication app, or a unique image known only to you. By using this extra step along with your password, MFA helps keep your account safer.

Why Use MFA?

  • Stronger security - Helps protect against hacking and scams.
  • Safeguards your personal information- Keeps your records and sensitive data secure.
  • Peace of mind - Reduces the risk of unauthorized access.

 

What to Expect

  • Extra login step - Takes just a few seconds but greatly improves security. 
  • Device needed - If using text messages or an authentication app, make sure your phone is handy and your contact details are current.
  • Quick setup-  Follow the instructions below to enable MFA for a smooth and secure experience.

 

The first time you login to ClassLink on or after April 21st, 2025 you will be presented with the ClassLink Multi-Factor Authentication Setup window:
