What’s your username and password

Unsure about your USAO username and password?

Initial/temporary password: Usao.Edu@ (case-sensitive) followed by your birthdate (8-digit, in the MMDDYYYY format).

So for example, if you were born on December 03, 2017, then your initial Science & Arts OneLogin password would be Usao.Edu@12032017.

Once you are logged in, you’ll need to update your password. It may take up to an hour for the change to sync across all systems.

Password must:

• Be at least twelve characters in length
• Be updated at least once a year
• Contain characters from three of the following four categories:
  • Uppercase letters (A through Z)
  • Lowercase letters (a through z)
  • Numbers (0 through 9)
  • Special characters (for example, !, $, #, %)
• Not contain your username
• Not contain more than two consecutive letters from your full name
• Not be a previously-used password.

Student IDs

Your first Student ID (Drover Card) is free and any replacements will cost $25 each. Payments for replacements should be made at the Business Office first. To receive your new student ID,  bring your receipt to Student Services.

Use your Student ID to check out Nash library books, receive student discounts at participating locations, obtain transcript/trimester grades, pick up work-study paychecks, and for free entrance at certain campus events.
