The process for setting up proxies

1. The student logs into the Old Hub (campushub.carleton.edu), selects View/Add Proxy Access.
2. This takes the student to the New Hub process to assign a proxy.  The student has some choices: 
   1. The student can view proxies they've already set up. 
   2. They can edit their proxy's access by clicking on the edit pencil. 
   3. They can click on the down arrow underneath Select a Proxy and choose a person who's already listed there or select Add Another User.  Then the student can choose which access they wish to give their proxy:  Account Activity; Account Summary; Make a Payment; Award Letter; Financial Aid Home; Required Documents; Grades.

3. Once the student assigns access to their proxy, the proxy will receive an email that looks like the following. 

Over the next several years, we will be moving all of the items from The Hub to a new software platform that the vendor calls Self-Service (we will continue to call it The Hub).  This new software has a more modern look-and-feel, and contains some new features.

The changes will not happen at once - they will happen in stages.  

Student Experience: while we are transitioning, students will access both old Hub and new Hub from the old Hub URL (campushub.carleton.edu).  Any of the links that have been moved to the new Hub will be prefaced with an asterisk (*) and will open in a new tab in the browser labeled The Hub.  Some of the changes will be relatively small and other changes may be significant. Communication about the changes will be commensurate with the complexity of the change.  Changes will also be indicated at the top of the Hub menu, and will give you directions regarding where to get more information, if you need it.

Parent/Proxy Experience:  All Parent/Proxy items from the OLD Hub have been migrated to NEW Hub, so parents and proxies will now access NEW Hub and will not need access to OLD Hub anymore.  The link to NEW Hub is: carlhub.carleton.edu or parenthub.carleton.edu.  Once a student has set up proxy access, the proxy will receive an email to tell them what their new username is and will give instructions about how to set their password.

Proxy access to The Hub.  Students will need to authorize parent/proxy access in NEW Hub (Ellucian Self Service).  Prior proxy authorizations (logins like studentusername_guest) WILL NOT MIGRATE.  All students will have the NEW Hub access shown above and they will have the option of assigning some, none, or all of the access to their parents or other proxies. 

• View/Add Proxy Access is available to the student in the top right corner when they click on their username. 
• It is also available on the menu along the left side of the form - click on the person (User Options) and select View/Add Proxy Access

*** Logins using a username of studentid_guest# will fail for campushub.carleton.edu, carlhub.carleton.edu, and parenthub.carleton.edu

NEW Hub FAQ

Proxy FAQ

I'm a parent/proxy.  How do I change my password for NEW Hub? 

Please access this link to reset your password.

How do I change my email address for Carleton's Hub proxy access?

You can change your email address here. 

I'm getting the error "Bad Request - Request Too Long".  What should I do?

Some potential options:

• Close your browser and restart it.
• Use a different browser.
• Use incognito mode in browser.
• Clear cookies/cache in browser.

As a proxy/parent, why can't I see more information? 

Items to check:

1.  When a proxy logs in, they are given the option to go into NEW Hub as themselves or as their student.  If they do not have another affiliation to Carleton, there will not be access to anything if they go in as themselves.  They need to choose their student in order to proxy their student's account.
2. Proxies will be able to log into OLD Hub with their new password, but they won't have any access in OLD Hub. 
   1. OLD Hub URL:  campushub.carleton.edu; thehub.carleton.edu; hub.carleton.edu
   2. NEW Hub URL: carlhub.carleton.edu; parenthub.carleton.edu
3. The student defines proxy access. If the proxy has no access for their student, they need to contact their student to make changes
