Step 3

When you click on the notification, you will be taken directly to the app in question.

Step 4

Once you have performed the action and cleared the notification, the number should automatically update the next time you log into MyUWF (if not sooner). If you would like manually check for new alerts and clear old ones, click the Refresh button. Mobile users can "pull down" the menu to refresh the list.
