Campus Safety & Security
Feeling secure on campus.
Emergency Services
A big part of making your Belmont College experience a positive one is ensuring your safety. We have the people, policies, and systems in place to do that. But you have an important role to play as well. Immediately report an emergency to your instructor or call the security department at extension 1150 or dial 911 from any College phone. Follow the emergency response procedures posted near the phone. The nearest emergency services personnel will respond.

BeAlert Mass Notification System
Belmont College maintains a mass notification system called BeAlert that uses e-mail, voice mail, and text messaging to notify the College community in the event of an on-campus emergency, weather delays/cancellations, or other pertinent issues. We strongly suggest that you register with the BeAlert system and update as necessary.
To receive BeAlert notifications:
- Log into your MyBelmont account
- Enter the Campus Life tab near the top of the page
- In the middle of the page you will see the “BeAlert” section, click on the blue “BEAlertNotification System Login” link. This will take you to the “Rave Login page.” You will login using your Belmont College email address and password. If you do not know your password you can click on “Forgot your password?” to reset it.
- You will automatically receive a welcome email to your Belmont College email account with instructions on how to login and add to your profile.
Once you are signed up, you can select how you wish to be notified of College emergency alerts. Options include:
- Mobile Phone – If you selected the mobile phone option, the notification system will send text alerts to your mobile phone. If you choose to sign up for this alert you will be sent a “test alert” with a four (4) digit code. You will be prompted to enter this code to verify your cell phone number. After you confirm your cell phone number, you will receive a second text to validate your enrollment in the notification system. Please note you will be responsible for any costs related to receiving text messages through your mobile phone. If you do not receive a confirmation text message after following the steps above, your mobile carrier may be enforcing a premium text messaging block on your account. To remedy this, contact your carrier and ask to have text messages from short codes 67283 and 226787 delivered to your mobile device.
- Voice Only Line Contacts – This will send you a voice message to a land phone or cell phone. We request only one be used since this is an additional cost for the system.
- Email – You can add additional email accounts for notification if you choose. Remember to check your “spam” or “junk” mail folder and allow the message to be delivered to your “inbox.”
