GW Alert

GW Alert is a simple computer application that enables you to receive immediate emergency notifications to your desktop.

Available for download now!

Why download GW Alert?

  • To receive immediate notification if an incident occurs on campus
  • To have a convenient, desktop portal to important campus web pages like Campus Advisories, UPD, and the GW News Center
  • To gain instant access to current or forecasted local and national weather
  • It's quick to download and easy to use

How does GW Alert work?

The application sits as a tray icon that you can easily maximize or minimize. If an incident alert is issued, the application appears as a popup and is accompanied by a short alert tone. A red crawler moves across the desktop providing you with emergency notification and instructions.
