When Access is Granted to Resources
Students (including Applicants)
People who have applied to UW-River Falls have a Falcon Account created when their application is initially processed, usually within a few days of applying. An applicant's Falcon Account is restricted to eSIS access only.
Once an applicant is admitted, additional resources are granted including assignment of an email address, computer lab login access and access to Canvas. Access to individual Canvas courses happens when the instructor makes the course available. Access to library databases and online journals is restricted until the first day of classes and removed once a student is no longer taking courses and not registered for future courses.
Employees
Employees have a Falcon Account created within a day of the Human Resources department entering their contract. Access to some UW System resources such as Canvas and payroll may take a day longer.
Provisional Accounts
Some individuals require access to a Falcon Account but are not students or employees of UW-River Falls. This includes but is not limited to visiting scholars, graduate student interns and UWRF Foundation employees. These accounts are created and removed based on approval from a director at UW-River Falls.
When Access Is Removed

Applicants & Admitted Students Who Have Not Enrolled
Applicants and admitted students lose access after the last day of the term for which they applied or were admitted.
