What is my NetID and what do I use it for (Huskyct, Huskymail, etc.)?
• A NetID is issued to every student as an unique identifier; user name or log-on providing access rights to a variety of online services. • To find your NetID, go to http://netid.uconn.edu and click on ‘Find your NetID.’ • A NetID is “system specific”, so the password you set is only good for associated services, such as Huskymail, Huskyct, Proxy, VPN, and NetReg. Other systems that use NetID log-on include applications within the Bursars, Registrar’s and Housing offices. • If you have any problems accessing and/or using your NetID, please telephone the UConn Help Center at 486-4357 or email helpcenter@uconn.edu. • Huskymail uses the NetID. It is the UConn student email system. If you plan to use an alternative email account, such as hotmail, gmail or yahoo, then you will need to set up email forwarding. NOTE: The University communicates with you through huskymail as the official line of communication. • Huskyct uses the NetID. Huskyct/Vista is used for the web enhanced courses. Instr
