Obtaining an CNet Account


If you are a currently registered student, staff member, or faculty member at the University of Chicago, you can establish a CNet account with NSIT by going to the CNet account management page and selecting the "Create your CNetID and Password" link.

During this process you will claim a CNetID and create a CNet password to use with your CNetID. Your CNet account will give you access to a number of University services: for example, you will get an @uchicago.edu email address, access to harper (NSIT's interactive-use server), authentication credentials for the web proxy servers and the wireless network, and a number of additional services.

In order to be eligible for an account, you must be a current student, staff, or faculty of the University. If you are unable to register for an account but should be eligible, talk to the Registrar (if you are a student) or your human resources department (if you are staff or faculty).
