Initial SOLAR Password
For students - the initial SOLAR password is their date of birth in mmddyy format (example: December 5, 1973 would be typed as 120573). After logging in with the initial password, a prompt will appear that will allow you to create your own password for future uses.
For faculty/staff (or if they are both a student and an employee) - You will need to set the initial password using the Password Reset Tool. Instructions to set your SOLAR password and using the Password Reset Tool can be found here. Once the password has been set, you will be able to use it instantly to log into your SOLAR account.
The password should contain a combination of letters, numbers and symbols and be something that is easy to remember but difficult for others to guess (avoid common words or names).
- NEVER share your SOLAR password with anyone!
