Many of us understand the first few weeks of school can be hectic and stressful (even without COVID-19). Let’s come together to help reduce this stress for incoming students by gently reminding them to enroll in MFA-Duo.
We ask that you please encourage the incoming and transfer students to enroll in MFA-Duo before their September 16 deadline. Instructional staff and faculty can add this blurb (and something specific to their classroom technology policies, if needed) to their syllabus to help promote early enrollment for students:
Prove it’s you!
All new incoming students must enroll in multi-factor authentication from Duo (MFA-Duo) by September 16, 2020 at mfa.wisc.edu in order to access UW–Madison online data (e.g. Canvas, email, MyUW). This additional security step uses something you know (your NetID and password) with something you have (your smartphone or token/fob) to prove it’s you!
