Changing an eID password
Your eID password must be changed each spring and fall semester during an approximate six-week timeframe. If you do not change your eID password by the deadline, it expires for security purposes. You will not be able to access services that require an eID and password such as KSU Wireless, your K-State email, iSIS, HRIS and others.
- For SPRING semester, the timeframe is January 1 through the second Wednesday in February.
- For FALL semester, the timeframe is August 1 through the second Wednesday in September.
Don't risk getting locked out of K-State wireless or email. Once you have changed to a new password, immediately update the eID password settings in all your computers, devices, and applications. This includes:
- KSU Wireless and/or KSU Housing wireless connections, using XpressConnect.
- Your local email and calendar client such as Outlook, MacMail and iCal, Pegasus or Gmail.
- Your mobile device(s) such as your cellphone or tablet.
- Other mobile devices, computers, and Web services.
Change your password
- Go to eProfile and sign in with your eID and current password.
- Click the Password settings link on the left side of the page or click the Change your eID password link in the Password settings section.
- Enter your old password.
- Type your new password in the boxes (twice, to verify it), and click the Continue button. You can also have K-State eProfile generate a password for you.
- Review or enter your password reset security question and answer as well as your mobile number. Click Change Password.
- You'll receive a message within seconds that your new password is ready to use.
