Can you get to the My.Southwest sign-on webpage? If you get this far but your credentials are rejected by the My.Southwest sign-on page, there is an issue with the school account. Try resetting your password.
If you successfully enter your credentials in the My.Southwest web page, but Navigate says “Uh-oh…” or “Something went wrong,” EAB must not have your username in their system. Contact navigatesupport@eab.com with your full name, username, and email address.
What college term are you in? Did you select the wrong term? Go to the More tab, under your name there’s a link to “Update year and term.”
If your selection is correct, in-app content might not be available for you yet. You can still use other features, and many of the to-dos for other semesters may still be relevant.
If the issue persists, email advising@southwest.tn.edu or studentsuccess@southwest.tn.edu.
