U of G Alert for Non-Registered Users / Visitors at the Guelph Campus

U of G Alert is the University’s critical incident notification system. It sends alert messages when an incident happens on campus.

If you are on campus and don’t have a U of G Alert account, you can still receive these alert messages.

• Non-registered users refer to contractors, guests, volunteers and OpenEd students
• Visitors to campus include conference attendees, athletic centre members or anyone who is on campus on a regular basis or for a defined period of time
• Parents with children attending camp

There are two ways to get alert messages:

• Via SMS / Text: Simply text the word UOGUELPH to 723389 to opt in to receive notifications from U of G Alert

  • Standard message and data rates may apply

  • Message frequency may vary

  • Carriers are not responsible for undelivered messages

• Push Notification: Install the Safe Gryphon app (available for iOS and Android) and enabling Push Notifications via About/Preference.  

Questions regarding visitor access should be directed to the campus emergency coordinator at cec@uoguelph.ca.
