Finding or Resetting Passwords

Sometimes students can't remember passwords, especially if they have been out of school for awhile. The Password Manager page provides options for Logins, password reset, and recovery. 

If students have not set a security questions/answers, or do not have an emergency mobile number on file, they will not be able to change their passwords. Please direct students to McClimans Hall Room 111. They will need to take their University ID card with them.
