NetID

Every active employee, student, and faculty member is assigned a NetID which is used to access various computing resources.

NetID and SOLAR

The NetID and SOLAR ID are two different identifiers.

Information regarding your NetID and NetID password is obtained by logging into SOLAR and clicking the NetID Maintenance link.

This is where you find out what your NetID is, how you set your security question, establish and change your NetID password, and test your NetID password to make sure it is working properly.
