Below are some answers to commonly asked questions about document uploads to the website: 


What file types are allowed on the website? 


We accept pdf, jpg, jpeg, png, gif, mp3, mov, avi, wmv, midi, and mid files currently. Documents through Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint can carry viruses and be potentially hazardous to our website. 


What if I have a variety of documents I want to be accessible to our website visitors?


If you are hoping to provide information to the general public or to a variety of online audiences that involves more than a few small documents, please contact us to discuss options for getting these onto the website. One of our current popular secondary options is to embed Box.com folders to the website, which allows you to manage your own documents easily without ticket requests and protects your files from being lost should we ever have our website hacked. 


If your documents are largely for internal purposes at USFSM, please consider other options for storage of your documents or talk to our Communications & Marketing department and/or E-Learning to learn about what platform is best for your needs.
