Text Message Notifications

Effective date: August 27, 2026

Aspire Research sends optional text message notifications to enrolled students and mentors who opt in. Messages include alerts when a new message is waiting in the Aspire portal and reminders about upcoming deadlines and mentoring sessions.

How to opt in

Text notifications are only available to enrolled program participants with a portal account. To opt in, log in to the Aspire portal (portal.aspireresearch.net), open your Profile, enter your mobile number, verify it with the one-time code we text you, and check the consent box. The box is unchecked by default; nobody is enrolled in texts unless they check it themselves.
