Instructions for students who have never logged in to the myIIT portal
To access the myIIT portal for the first time, each student must log in using his or her IIT-assigned UID (User ID) for the username and the IIT-assigned CWID (Campus-wide ID) number as part of the password. Please note that your IIT-assigned UID is not necessarily the same as your username for logging in to the Chicago-Kent network or webmail.
On subsequent visits to the myIIT portal, you’ll continue to use your IIT-assigned UID as your username along with a password you create during the process outlined below.
1. Find your UID (User ID) and CWID (Campus-wide ID) online
To find your UID
In the left navigation column, under Student Help, click on the "Student U-ID Lookup" link and fill out the MyUID search form. Your UID will appear in "bold black" text in the Student Results area.
To find your CWID
In the left navigation column, under Student Help, click on the "Student CWID Lookup" link and follow the instructions on the secure server. You will need your Social Security number or your assigned 999 ID number.
2. Access the myIIT portal
Once you have your UID and CWID, you can access the myIIT portal at http://my.iit.edu or from links on the Chicago-Kent Web site and the IIT Web site. (Look for the myIIT icon.)
On the myIIT login page, enter your myIIT username and password in the login area on the left side of the screen:
- Your username is your IIT-assigned UID.
- Your temporary password is an eight-digit number formed by the two-digit month (MM) and the two-digit day (DD) of your birthday, followed by the last four digits of your CWID (####), as in MMDD####. For example, if your birthday were June 8 and the last four digits of your CWID were 1234, your password would be 06081234.
- The system will then ask you to change your password. Please do so.
