Getting This Service
Users may gain access to Qualtrics by contacting the administrator assigned to their organization. Complete list of administrators (including brands, departments, and administrator contact information).
If you have additional administrative needs, please refer to the following service request options:
- Move from Mason Remote to Enterprise
- This is used when a user who currently has an account under one of the remote departmental Mason Qualtrics brands must be moved into a division within the GMU.Qualtrics.com brand
- Requires the approval of both the originating and the destination administrators
- Non-Mason Transfer to Mason Qualtrics
- This is used when a user who currently has an account within a non-Mason brand needs to move surveys into a division within GMU.Qualtrics.com. This should only be used to bring surveys along with the user. If the user does not have any surveys to transfer to Mason, there is no reason to move the account, as all the account settings will be changed to match the Mason configuration
- Requires the approval of the destination administrator
- Transfer User between Divisions
- This is used to move the user and any attached surveys between two divisions within GMU.Qualtrics.com
- Requires the approval of both the originating and the destination administrators
- New Division Request
- This is used when a group within the Mason community would like to create a division within GMU.Qualtrics.com
- Requires a Division Owner and Division Administrator (must be two separate faculty/staff members)
- The Division Owner must be a director-level or higher
- Division Administrators are responsible for the general support of users within their division
- There may be more than one administrator
- Because a user can only exist in one brand and one division at any time, the Division Administrator must only be a member of the division they are administering
- Reasons to establish a new division – there is no division for your organization within Mason (College, School, Division, etc.); your group requires permissions different than the permissions set for your organization; the number of people in your group is larger than the organization is willing to administer; other reasons that may arise
- Change Division Admin Request
- This is used to add or remove a Division Administrator within GMU.Qualtrics.com (does not remove the account)
- Requires the approval of the Division Owner
- Division Administrators are responsible for the general support of users within their division
- There must be at least one administrator for every division. There can be more than one administrator for each division. A user can only administer the division they are a member of, and a user can only be a member of one division
