Reaching the Service Desk is as simple as calling.

After Hours Urgent Support is available for emergencies only by calling 314-977-4000 and pressing option 1.

Other Options for Help:

Email:

If your need is not urgent, but you want to get your ticket in the system, feel free to email ask@slu.edu.

We will begin working on your need the next business day and will contact you within 24 hours after that.


Service Requests:

If what you need is a standard request, we may already have a form in the system for you to fill out.
This is particularly useful because we identify exactly what information is needed to save time.
These are located at the AskSLU Portal and several common options are listed on the left under IT Services.
Otherwise, you can use the search option at the top and enter a few relevant key words.


Knowledge Base Articles:

We have hundreds of articles posted at the AskSLU Portal that provide detailed answers, information, and step-by-step instructions for certain processes and procedures. If you feel inclined to see if you can solve your own issue, you can use the same search option at the top of the page that you would use for Service Requests.
There are several commonly used articles listed on the left under the heading Knowledge Base Articles.
