What is my email and network username?
Your username is made up of your first initial followed by the first two characters of your last name, then by your birth month and day with two digits each, followed by the letter “a”.

For example, if your name was Joe Smith and your birthday was 01/03/1980, then your username would be JSm0103a. Please note: in the event that multiple students have the same usernames the addit
