Navigating the Redesigned mySFA

The redesigned mySFA portal has several new features including improved navigation. 

Here's a look into some of the new features and some tips for navigating the portal with an emphasis on the student and employee home pages.

 

Icons

Clicking on an icon will navigate users to the specified software/site.

Note: Users may be prompted log-in again after clicking on an Icon to ensure secure access.

 

Navigation Menu

The My Menu drop-down is a new feature that allows users to save their favorite mySFA links!

Note: Favorited links are browser-specific. For instance, if users save a favorite on My Menu in Google Chrome, it will not save as a favorite in Firefox or their mobile browser. Favorites stored in My Menu are cookie/cache-based. If cookies/cache are cleared, you may need to re-add your favorites to My Menu.

Links in the Navigation Menu take users directly to the various areas within mySFA.
