Account Information
I would like to register. How can I get an account and password?
To register for this site you must have a uniqname or friend account and password.
What is a U-M Uniqname?
A U-M uniqname is your official U-M computing ID and may have been part of your @umich email address if you are an alumni/ae, faculty or staff. Your uniqname or friend account and password are required in order to login to your personal information on this site.
What is a Friend Account?
A Friend account is a U-M guest computing account. It allows someone who does not have a U-M uniqname and UMICH Kerberos password to authenticate to the U-M computing environment allowing them to log in to the environment and be identified. Friend accounts can be used by donors and friends of the University who are not alumni/ae, faculty or staff.
Why should I log out when I'm finished visiting this site?
As with all websites containing personal data, it is important to log out from your session to help keep your information secure.
