Request Short URLs & QR Codes

Towson University departments and organizations can request official 快活视频short URLs and QR codes from Digital Strategy by using the short URL or QR code request form.

A short URL is a shortened www.towson.edu link that is easy to remember, type and share. A QR code can be scanned with a mobile device to open a webpage.  

Short URL Criteria 

Before submitting your request, please make certain your short URL:

  • is not already in use
  • relates to the site/page content and is not overly broad or vague
  • links to a www.towson.edu webpage or a TU-owned web property 

Example of an acceptable short URL: www.towson.edu/policies. This is acceptable because it describes the site content and is the location of all official 快活视频policies. 

Example of an unacceptable short URL: www.towson.edu/graduate. This is unacceptable because it is too broad and could relate to graduating, graduate studies, graduates, etc. 

QR Code Criteria 

Before submitting your request, please make certain your QR code:

  • is not used for email, social media or on websites
  • links to a www.towson.edu webpage or a TU-owned web property
