UW NetID INFORMATION
Hopefully by now you have set up your NetID. The NetID allows you to login to your student account online at
http://myuw.washington.edu. From there you can see your schedule and check your grades. Many of our courses
use online tools which require you to have a UW NetID, and you must have a NetID to use UW computers or
access wireless internet on campus.
If you have not already done so, please create your “UW Net ID” as soon as possible by going to this website:
https://uwnetid.washington.edu/newid/ and following these instructions:
1. On the first page choose: I don't have a UW NetID (or I'm not sure)
2. On the second page choose: UW Student
3. Complete the required information. If you do not know your PAC or ID number, please contact the IELP
office.
4. Create your NetID (you can choose one of the suggested NetIDs, or create your own)
5. Create your password
6. This step is optional. You are not required to complete the security questions. If you ever forget your
password, you can contact the IELP Office for assistance.
7. Choose whether you want to check your UW email at http://myuw.washington.edu or if you prefer to have
your UW emails forwarded to a different email account.
