IMPORTANT: When making profile changes in the Virtual Campus, it can take UP TO 2 HOURS for the changes to take effect in the system. After you update and save this profile information within the DAU Virtual Campus, the changes will be updated in the DAU Identity Management system after 2 hours have passed. If you log out of your account and log back in before the 2 hour timeframe has passed, the profile updates you made in the Virtual Campus "WILL NOT" be sent to your profile in the DAU Identity Management system. If you must make changes to your profile in the Virtual Campus, we recommend you make the changes prior to logging out of your account for the day.
