Password: How to change or reset your UofM password


How to Change Your Password Video

Service Description: 

Your password, used with your Universal User ID (UUID), grants access to most of the University's technology resources and online services. This account password should be unique from every other password you use. Effective July 31, ITS Service Desk staff will transition to supporting the new process and will no longer have the capability to assign “temporary” passwords. For more information about this self-service feature please, see the New Password Reset Process webpage. Note: If you have recently changed your password, forget and re-add all UofM wireless networks on all of your devices. For more help connecting to on-campus wireless networks, visit our wireless page.

What Information is Needed to Fulfill the Service Request?  

If resetting password via security questions, you will need to know the answers to the questions you selected during account setup. If visiting the Service Desk to change your password, please have proper identification (Campus ID is preferred). If requesting a password reset via umTech, include your name and call back number. When your request is processed, you will be contacted by a supervisor at the Service Desk.
