Introduction
The Alamo Colleges Alamo Alert system is used to communicate with students, employees, non-affiliated users and other members of the Alamo Colleges family in the event of a college emergency or weather-related delay or closure.
Among its many features, the Alamo Alert system can send email and text notifications directly to your mobile phone.
Alamo Colleges email addresses are automatically subscribed to the Alamo Alert System. Log on to www.getrave.com/login/alamo to update your profile. We highly encourage you to add your mobile phone if it is not already part of your student or employee record.
Note: If you have already entered your mobile number in our previous Alamo Alerts System, all you have to do is log in and confirm your mobile number, however, this is not necessary to receive alerts. If you have never entered your mobile number, you will not receive text alerts on your cell phone.
