Answer
When you become a student or an employee at Creighton University, you will be assigned a NetID. Your NetID is the account username that goes with your BLUE password. It will consist of three letters and five numbers, and cannot be changed. The letters usually match your initials, and the numbers are randomly generated. Your NetID provides access to online resources such as CUmail, BlueLine, and NEST.
Faculty and Staff
Faculty and staff are assigned a NetID when their records are created. The NetID remains active for as long as the faculty or staff member is employed with Creighton.
Students
Students are automatically assigned a NetID upon admission. This NetID remains active for as long as the student is enrolled in classes. If a student does not register for classes during two consecutive terms (not counting the summer term), the NetID will be removed along with access to email and the University network.
When students graduate from the university, they are allowed to keep their NetID and Creighton Email,
When you are setting up your NetID/password combination for the first time, and every time you are asked to change your NetID password, you should use a private combination of letters and numbers that would be hard for anyone else to guess.
