Each student and instructor can manage their own Brightspace notification settings.

To ensure that you receive emails from Purchase College Brightspace, make sure that your primary campus affiliation and email address is set to Purchase by reviewing your “Account Check” widget.

Above the “My Courses” widget, you will see the “Account Check” widget. Please review your account information and if you are a full-time Purchase student, ensure that your primary campus affiliation is with Purchase and that Brightspace is using your Purchase email account to communicate with you. If it is not, please create a ticket with the SUNY Online Help Desk to request that the information be updated.

To manage your Brightspace notifications, click on your name in the upper right corner and click “Notifications.” By default, you will receive an email notification when a new Announcement is made or updated. Check the appropriate box to receive notifications for those actions. Remember to click on the “Save” button when you’re done.

More about Notifications can be found at the “Change personal settings in Brightspace” official Brightspace Community documentation.
