Converse Emergency Alert System

AlertMedia

Converse utilizes the AlertMedia system to send urgent text, call and/or app alerts to current Converse students, faculty, and staff. During potential emergency situations, all current students, faculty, and staff will automatically receive information via their Converse email address, ranging from severe weather warnings to inclement weather delays/cancellations to more critical emergency notifications.

Converse students, faculty, and staff can download the AlertMedia app to stay connected, receive important campus notifications, and gain access to the resources and documents they need most.

Once registered on AlertMedia, Converse students can add two additional emails and/or phone numbers to their AlertMedia account so their parents or family members can also receive these notifications.

Utilizing the AlertMedia app for this alert system enables Converse University to communicate with the entire campus community.

Download the AlertMedia app from the App Store or Google Play to stay connected.

Why download the app?
