Accounts & Access

The 91ÖÆƬ³§Net ID for your 91ÖÆƬ³§ Account is assigned to you by 91ÖÆƬ³§. It is part of your official 91ÖÆƬ³§ email address (e.g., 91ÖÆƬ³§NetID@fau.edu or 91ÖÆƬ³§NetID@health.fau.edu). 91ÖÆƬ³§ uses single sign-on for most applications. This means that you will use the same credentials for most of the applications offered to you as a student, faculty member, and/or staff member.

91ÖÆƬ³§Net ID Changes

---

Your original 91ÖÆƬ³§Net ID (user name) is not subject to change. There are two exceptions: (1) if an error was made in the spelling of your name that affected the 91ÖÆƬ³§Net ID assigned to you or (2) if you have legally changed your name (such as through marriage). Prior to changing your 91ÖÆƬ³§Net ID, you must have had your legal name change recorded in the University database. To do this, faculty and staff must contact Human Resources; students must contact the Registrar’s Office. Once your name change has been officially entered, you may submit an 91ÖÆƬ³§Net ID Change request.
