NetIDs
and changing your NetID password
Kellogg students have one computer account: a University
NetID. Your NetID is your key to online resources at
Kellogg and Northwestern. With your NetID and password,
you can access your online grade report, email, web
resources, etc.
The
password for your NetID is also the password for your
NU email account. Every 120 days your NetID password
will expire. Password expiration is imposed by the University
for security reasons. You will receive email messages
prior to the expiration date of the password warning
you of the need to change your password.

Obtaining
a Temporary NetID Password
If your password expires, you will need to obtain a
temporary password. If this happens, please contact
Allyson Grey of the Part-Time MBA Program office at
(312) 503-6635 or a-grey@kellogg.northwestern.edu.
You
can also request a temporary password by calling:
-
Kellogg Information Systems' Technical Support Center
at (847) 467-2100. (Hours)
-
Northwestern IT's Support Center at (847) 491-HELP
(4357). (Hours)
Please
note that you must have a "Question & Answer"
(Q&A) recorded that we can use to verify your identity.
If you have not set up a Q&A, neither KIS nor Northwestern
IT will be able to reset your password over the phone.
If you need a temporary password, but do not have a
Q&A, please see Northwestern IT's Options
for Resetting your NetID Password.
Your
email account
It’s important to maintain your email account
because this is the account that professors will use
to send class-related announcements.
The
first step in using email is to have a NetID and
password. You should have received this information
during new student orientation.
Wieboldt
Hall has computers and printers available for Part-Time
MBA Program students on the first floor and in the Schaffner
Library. You can use the Kellogg Exchange Messaging and Calendaring System
to check your email or configure Outlook to check
your email.
Kellogg Exchange vs. NU Email
All part-time students are now on the Kellogg Exchange Messaging and Calendaring System. The Kellogg Exchange Messaging and Calendaring Systems provides a single interface for managing your mail, calendar, tasks, and contacts. For additional information regarding the transition to Exchange, please click here.
If you have a Kellogg Exchange Account, you can access your email through the Kellogg Webmail Interface (OWA) or through Outlook (you must first configure Outlook for Exchange- see configuring Outlook links below).
To access Kellogg Outlook Web Access (OWA), click here.
If you have not completed a course since Summer 2007, and you you plan to re-enroll in the Fall 2008 quarter, you will need to have an Exchange account created. Please contact Allyson Grey for more information.
There are a few exceptions, which are noted below. If you fall into the following categories, your account still resides on the NU mail server and you will need to access your email via NU Webmail.
- June and August 2008 Graduates
- Students who have not completed a course in the past year (since Summer 2007)
To access NU Webmail, click here.
Special note for NU employees: If you are a part-time student and a Northwestern University employee, you do not have an Exchange email account. All mail sent to your Kellogg email account will be delivered to the email account that you use for work purposes. However, the calendaring functions in Kellogg Exchange are available for use.
Forward your email
or set your vacation message
If you don’t want to check two email accounts,
you can forward your email to your work or home email
address. You can also set a vacation message when you
will be away from your email for a long period of time.
