Stay Connected with SPCS

There are two primary ways to stay connected with SPCS as an alum. First, forward your permanent UR email address to an active email account. Second, activate and maintain your UR Online directory profile.

Forward Your Richmond Email

At Richmond, alumni are eligible to use their @richmond.edu email address for life. However, alumni must activate this benefit.

  1. Visit the Alumni SSO (Single Sign-On) Credential Service page: https://wwws.richmond.edu/alumni 
  2. Enter your SSO credentials (username and password).
    1. Your username could be your your UR NetID, UR ID or any valid email address on file with UR.
    2. Your password is the same password that you used as a student to access network resources.
  3. If you don’t have SSO credentials, try the SSO Credential Self-Service portal (link on the SSO Credential Service page)
  4. Once logged in, follow the prompts to activate your email for life.

Once you’ve activated your Richmond email for life, be sure to forward messages to an active email account. You’ll be able to do so during the activation process. And if you change your active email address sometime later, don’t forget to update the forwarding address in the Alumni SSO Credential Service page.

If you have questions, contact the alumni SSO support line at (866) 998-0010 or (804) 484-1477.

Note: These instructions do not apply to active UR faculty and staff who have earned degrees through UR. Faculty and staff continue using their existing accounts.

Update Your UROnline Directory Profile

One of most important actions you can take as a graduate is activating and updating your UROnline account. Until activated, you will not appear in the Alumni Directory as an SPCS graduate.

  • Activating your account enables you to stay connected to your classmates and the school, and to appear in the Alumni Directory.
    • Activating your profile and making it visible in the Alumni Directory enables you easily to connect and network with other SPCS graduates.
  • Updating your profile enables you to update contact information, add degrees earned, revise employment information, add family information (marriages, separations, and children) and more.
    • When updating your profile, you decide what appears and does not appear in the Alumni Directory. You can make as much or as little of your details visible to others.

For your convenience, you can use existing login credentials from a social media platform (Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn) or create a new account with an email address and password. Either account type will give you access to the Alumni Directory and enable you to update your profile.

Please take a few minutes to ensure your account is up-to-date.
