Look for an email from your LAR 101 professor for more details! 

Authorized Users

By adding authorized users you are allowing access to your billing and payment information. Usually students add their parents/guardians, or other individuals who help them financially. To add authorized users to your student account, follow the directions at wa.doane.edu

Emergency Alerts

All students are automatically signed up for our emergency alert system each semester. Please contact the Registrar at registrar@doane.edu to ensure that your current contact information (e.g., cell phone) is up to date in order to receive alerts.

Doane University's Safety Office also utilizes the Crisis Manager app (available in the App Store and Google Play Store) as a resource for everyone in the Doane community to have vital safety information at their fingertips at all times.  Your Doane email address has already been added to the appropriate safety plan. If you open the app, it will automatically download that plan for you.

For parents: if you would like to have the Parent Safety Guide, please email doanesafetyoffice@doane.edu. We can then add you to that plan and once that is completed, it will automatically download when you open the app.

Payment Plan Agreement

If you have not already submitted your Payment Plan Agreement Form to the Student Accounts Office, please do so before July 15th. You can contact the Student Accounts Office at 402.826.8250 or by emailing studentaccounts@doane.edu.
