Addition of Delegated Access Enhances Pathify's Student Portal Promoting a Secure Option for Students and Families DENVER , April 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pathify, the leading digital engagement hub for higher education, today announced the launch of the next phase of its Delegate Hub –- Delegated Access. Designed to empower students, streamline institutional oversight and enhance family and caregiver engagement, Delegated Access sets a new standard for user-controlled, FERPA-compliant information sharing in the higher ed market. "Students need support systems and institutions need tools that balance engagement with privacy," said Chase Williams , CEO and Co-founder of Pathify.

"Delegated Access bridges the gap between students and their families or caregivers while keeping institutions in full control of compliance and data access." Delegated Access allows students (granting users) to securely link specific individuals — such as parents, guardians, advisors or coaches — and assign customized, read-only access to critical portal components, including tasks, announcements and widgets. Unlike traditional systems that silo users or require disjointed portals, Pathify's Delegated Access keeps all users — students and delegates — within the same modern, mobile-friendly digital environment.



The feature securely supports a wide range of real-world use cases — from parent-student collaboration on financial aid tasks to advisors tracking academic progress — without compromising control or privacy. Delegated Access balances student autonomy with institutional oversight while solving key challenges like limited family visibility, disconnected communication channels and security risks from credential sharing. Unlike standalone access management tools, Delegated Access is part of Delegate Hub, a module within Pathify's Engagement Hub.

The Engagement Hub seamlessly integrates with over 100 campus systems, including SIS, LMS, tasks and messaging platforms. Institutions retain full control over permissions and provisioning, while students manage who sees what through intuitive account settings. Delegated Access is now available to institutions with Delegate Hub enabled and can be activated through the Pathify Admin Center.
