How Do I Set Up Tiger Alert Text (aka: ChSCC Emergency Alert Notification System) to My SmartPhone?

Tiger Alert is Chattanooga State's Emergency Alert Notification System set up to inform staff, faculty, and students during times of emergency, inclement weather, disasters, crisis situations, etc..

Students received a Tiger Alert Welcome email on April 4th, 2011 telling them how to set up the text and email alerts. Here is the information again for students who may have deleted this email.


Everyone with an official ChSCC email address is automatically enrolled in the system and if desired, can opt in for receiving text messages. Registration for Tiger Alerts is in TigerWeb



  1. Use your student identification number (also referred to as your A#) and password to login to TigerWeb.

  2. Click on the Tiger head icon to access the Tiger Alert registration form.

  3. The student's username will be their full Chattanooga state email address. (_@my.chattanoogastate….)

  4. Each student will receive a different password in an email.

  5. Once students enter their username and password they will see a link to “Register Phone”.

  6. They then put in their number and receive a text with a 4 number confirmation code.

  7. They then enter that on the screen and registration is complete.

Important Notice: for Verizon customers, this is considered a premium text and the student may be charged 10 dollars per text!!! Students should check with their service provider to determine if the Tiger Alert text messages are considered to be premium text.


Students, who have smart phones, may want to just register another email which can be sent to their phone. All students and future new students, will receive an email about Tiger Alert registration to their @my.chattanoogastate email no matter what. They must register to add another email address or receive texts.
