About this app

The official Bowie State app is the ultimate way for students to stay connected to campus life.

• Connect with others through chat, events, polls, and group messaging.
• Stay updated with the latest Bowie State news and announcements.
• Explore upcoming campus events and activities.
• Access important information and campus resources—all in one place.

PLEASE NOTE: If your device opens the web browser instead of Bowie State University, please check the “Opening Links” (or similar) section of your phone’s settings to confirm “Open supported links” (or similar) is enabled for Bowie’s app. This is commonly an issue on Samsung devices. See more in the "SSO Tips" section of this support article: https://support.raftr.com/support/solutions/articles/153000142165-creating-and-activating-an-account
