Announcements

SUNY Empire provides virtual support services at www.esc.edu/1stop with access to a variety of resources, including instructional guides, videos, Live Chat, and BLUE our AI Chat Bot, to assist you with common questions about financial aid, registration, and more.

Tips when Chatting with Blue:

  • Use Question Format
    • When you phrase your inquiry as a question, she's more likely to identify what you need.
  • Be Simple & Specific
    • Ask one question at a time, keep it short, and use key words so she can provide relevant responses. Blue cannot provide account information.
  • Take Advantage of Links and Suggestions
    • Take the time to review the webpages, videos, and links she provides, as they should be able to answer your questions. This will save you time in the long run!
    • If needed, Blue will provide a form to collect information to give our Student Information Center. A staff member will answer your inquiry by email. Be sure you enter your email address accurately.
