Claim Your UCID: New students, faculty, and staff

First-time users must claim their UCID and set a password. During this process, you will:

  • Claim your UCID
  • Set a password for your NJIT account
  • Enroll in Duo multi-factor authentication (MFA)

A UCID claim notification will be emailed to your personal email address from MyUCID Management (myucid-no-reply@njit.edu). 

If necessary, go to MyUCID.njit.edu and click Claim Your UCID to have the email resent to you. 

  • Please Note: This form is not available to those with NJIT guest accounts as guests are not given NJIT-IDs. If you are a guest and cannot find your UCID claim email, please contact the Service Desk at (973) 596-2900.

Once you have located the email, click the red Claim your UCID button, then follow the instructions on the subsequent screens to complete your account setup. For detailed instructions, visit Claim Your UCID and Password.

Once you complete the claim process, your active UCID account can be used to access NJIT computing services.
