Advise on the Web (AoW)
Advise on the Web allows academic advisors to view academic information for students. The following information is available in AoW:
- Individual student information (real-time): View information for individual students (unofficial transcripts, course, and academic information).
- Information for students in batch: Query the AoW database (includes canned reports/queries); send mass email; print transcripts in batch.
- Go to the UM Account Request Form. Enter your UMD credentials if prompted.
- Confirm that the User Information section at the top is correct.
- Complete the FERPA tutorial if you have not done so already.
- Under the Access Request section, check the box next to Advise on the Web. Make sure to select the type of access needed; Failure to select an option will delay your access request:
- Read Only: Ability to view individual student information only
- Search: Provides search capability
- Batch: Ability to print batch transcripts
- Mass Mailing: Ability to send mass emails
- Complete and submit the form.

AoW is an advising tool that is used for specific, unit-related advising purposes. As such, the Office of the University Registrar does not provide formalized training on AoW; rather, advisors are typically trained by someone from their advising unit. However, if you would like to request general training from the Office of the University Registrar, please contact advisefeedback@umd.edu.
