Your netID

Faculty and Staff

Staff and faculty receive a netID consisting of their initials followed by a number (e.g., wtr1) from HR on their first day of work.

 

Students

A netID and password are automatically created for all newly registered students and sent to them by U.S. Mail. It is not necessary to fill out an account request form. Students receive a netID consisting of their first and last initials followed by five digits (e.g., br99901).  Be careful not to confuse the letter "l' and the number one, or the letter "o" and the number zero.  Remember that the first two characters of your netID are letters and the last five characters are numbers. Undergraduates can reach out to Admissions at 773-298-3050 or admission@sxu.edu for questions. Graduates can reach out to 773-298-3053 or graduateadmission@sxu.edu.

 

Alumni

Students who graduate may keep their netID and myMail account. However, for those who graduated before the current netID system was established, a netID and myMail account may be requested through the Alumni Relations office.

 

Retired Employees

Retired faculty may keep their netID, e-mail account, and access to the library databases. To access their e-mail, they can go to https://outlook.office.com and log in with netid@sxu.edu. To access the library databases, they may go to lib.sxu.edu and log in with netID.
