Emergency Contact Information (EMC) and Notification

Responding to increased concerns about security issues of all kinds on university campuses nationwide, we have initiated a process to require students to provide and/or verify Emergency Contact Information on a regular basis. Your safety and well-being are a priority at UMass Lowell. To ensure the university can respond quickly in an emergency and reach your designated emergency contacts when needed, all students must verify their emergency contact and the student’s physical local address. This information will be used to contact designated individuals in the event of an emergency.

To remove the EMC hold, you must complete the following steps:

  1. Log into SIS where you will be prompted with your Student Task WorkCenter for the Emergency Contact & Student Address Verification process.
  2. Review both your Local Physical Addresses and your designated Emergency Contacts pages.
  3. Make any edits, additions or deletions as appropriate.
  4. Once the information is verified and accurate, select “Accept Verification” on both the Addresses and Emergency Contacts pages.
  5. Go to Complete Task to confirm and complete the process by selecting “Finish and Remove Hold”.

Please note that the EMC hold will automatically be removed once you have successfully completed the steps listed above.
