Students, if you are a previous University of Utah student and have taken classes at the University at any time in the past, note that there is a chance that you might already have a University record. If this is the case, please be sure to check the, "Yes, this student has taken classes before at the University" and will ensure that your records are all kept under the same account. If you have married since you last attended, please ensure that you enter your former name as it helps to match up your records.

If you did attend, and you don't remember your uNID, please go down to the, "How do I find my University ID number (uNID)?" tab to assist you.

You can find your unid to access CIS, Canvas, transcripts, some payment information or tuition by going to: https://auxiliary.apps.utah.edu/uofu/misc/UnidRetrieval/. You'll need to complete the form using the information that you used to complete your registration.

If you are a previous student, please make sure that you enter the last name you used when you attended.

Duo 2FA is the University's two factor authentication protocol that all students, staff and faculty must comply with to access various University systems including CIS. You should be prompted to complete the registration process when you log into CIS for the first time. If you run into any issues in this process, please reach out to the University's Help Desk and specifically mention that you need assistance in getting Duo 2FA set up.
