K-Staters have January through Feb. 11 to change the passwords on their K-State eIDs for the spring semester. This mandatory password change occurs each fall and spring, and applies to both individual eIDs and group eIDs. Long-term use of the same password is a known risk factor, which is why any K-State password cannot be re-used within a two-year period.
After Feb. 11, unchanged passwords will lose access to K-State e-mail, iSIS, K-State Online, K-State dial-in, free laser printing, university computing labs, and other IT services.
- To change your password, sign in on the eid.k-state.edu website. Click “Change your eID password or password-reset options” and follow the steps.
- Forgot your password? Call the IT Help Desk, 785-532-7722, and verify your identity. Staff can set a temporary password for you so you can sign in.
- For more about passwords, including how to choose a good one, read the Password FAQs.
An e-mail reminder is typically sent to K-Staters with unchanged passwords a week or two prior to the password deadline.
