WVU parent and guest portal
WVU parent and guest portal is an online system that allows students to grant third parties access to their academic records.
Information that is protected from disclosure pursuant to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), such as grades, financial aid details, and student account and billing information is maintained in a secure online environment. A student may grant permission to a parent or guest to access some or all of this information via two portals:
- To view grades, financial aid, schedule details, holds, contact information, and to call with questions (including those about billing) – students must grant access via Parent/Guest Portal .
- To view charges and pay bills online, students must also grant access to the new WVU MyAccount Portal.
