This article demonstrates how to add/update or verify your Campus Alert information and your

Emergency Contacts on CAMS.

• Campus Alert is the information on file to contact you, the individual, in the event of an emergency on campus (e.g., weather emergencies, active shooter, lockdown, etc.).

• Emergency Contacts is the contact information for your next of kin in the event something should happen to you, and we need to get in touch with them on your behalf (e.g., injury, illness, accident, etc.)

Step 10. The address details of where you were staying during your last registration at Florida Polytechnic

University are preloaded into these text boxes. If you are currently living elsewhere or moving soon,

you must update this information now or when you finalize your move. If you are remaining in the

same saved address for this coming semester, then no update is needed. Proceed to the next

section, “Notes/Medical Conditions”.

Step 11. Notes of anything Florida Polytechnic should know about that will impact your student

experience are already preloaded from your last registration. These may include medical conditions

or other circumstances that will require accommodations. Whether any changes have occurred or

not, update the notes accordingly. If you do not wish to add notes, you may leave it blank.

the “Add” button.
