I am a new student - do I have a Global ID?

Once a student has been given admission status – non-degree, regular or conditional – they can, and should, set up a Global ID and e-mail account within 30 days following their admission to CMU. After 30 days, the student will need to contact the on-campus Help Desk at (989) 774-3662, helpdesk@cmich.edu or go to the Help Desk located in Park Library 101 for assistance in setting up their account.
I am a new faculty/staff member - how do I receive my Global ID?

Faculty and staff members who are listed as employed in the SAP system will have Global IDs automatically created for them. If you have had a Global ID in the past, it will remain the same even if you leave and return to the University. If you do not know your Global ID and/or password, you can contact the Help Desk at (989) 774-3662 or go to the Help Desk located in Park Library 101. Alternatively, you can view it by looking up yourself in the CMU online directory. Your Global ID is the first eight characters (or less, depending on your last name) of your official email address.
Is it mandatory to set the security question and answer?

It is not mandatory to set the security question and answer. However, we strongly recommend that you do so. If, in future, you forget your password then you need your security question and its answer, to reset or change your password.
Do I need to remember the security question and answer?

Once you set your security question, you don't need to remember the question to reset your password, we will remember it for you. However, you need to remember the answer to your security question. Make sure that you remember your answer exactly as you entered it because you will be required to match the spelling and punctuation of this answer in the event you forget your password later.
