Notification - myCoyote Portal and App Upgrade
Please note that we will be upgrading the myCoyote portal and mobile app platform next week (August 8, 2022). This posting will be updated prior to the exact day and time of the upgrade. This upgrade should not cause an interruption of service or disrupt access to the portal or app.
The following changes will occur once the upgrade is complete.
- Square tiles will change shape, and the icons and text will be on the right instead of below.
- Quicker access to Search and Messages
- The hamburger menu items will be removed and replaced with dropdown menus specific to Students, Faculty, and Staff. You will see the menu for every role to which you are affiliated.
- More frequently visited tiles have been moved up the page for better visibility and quicker access.
- The links under the Degree Progress tile have been moved under the My Academics section
