MyIIT (Portal)

Shortly after you apply, you will receive an e-mail containing your myIIT login information.  Once you receive this email, please login to myIIT with your username and temporary password.  The system will prompt you to change your password and select a security question.

PIN (Registration)

Your PIN, which is available on the Welcome tab of your myIIT web page, is used only for registration purposes.  The PIN is not issued by OTS but by your advisor.  Undergraduates may have to see their advisor each semester to receive a PIN for registration.  Graduate students may only need to see an advisor once.

Student Email

Most students will all have an email address that ends in @hawk.iit.edu; Institute of Design students will all have an email address that ends in @id.iit.edu; Chicago-Kent College of Law students will all have an email address that ends in @kentlaw.iit.edu.

Staff's and faculty's email addresses will usually end in @iit.edu, @id.iit.edu, @kentlaw.iit.edu, or @stuart.iit.edu.

Portal ID

Your portal ID is the login name/username you use to access the portal and other resources.  It is the same as the beginning part of your email address.   If your email address is abc123@hawk.iit.edu, then your portal ID would be abc123.

A #/CWID

A01000001

Your "A number" or CWID is a unique number used to identify each student at the university.  The CWID is used instead of a Social Security number.
