Highlander Pipeline is NJIT's campus portal. A portal is an entrance to networked information services specific to a person or organization. Similar to an Internet search engine, which gathers information from one location, Highlander Pipeline provides instant access to nearly all information services at NJIT. These services include registration, transcript, financial aid, and billing services, as well as email, seamless integration with WebCT, calendars and special information sites for each of your courses. In the future, student employees will be able to submit their timesheets online through Highlander Pipeline. Details of all the services available are listed below.
Highlander Pipeline is also used for important announcements and other news for the NJIT community. You are responsible for reading current bulletins in Highlander Pipeline.

Announcements
Announcements contain either "Personal" announcements or "Campus" announcements. Campus Wide announcements are general notifications and bulletins sent to everyone. Personal announcements are targeted specifically for you depending on your role at NJIT. For example, if you are a Junior, you may only receive announcements targeted towards Juniors.
