Password-change deadline for eIDs is Sept. 10

Wednesday, Sept. 10, is the deadline for changing passwords on K-State eIDs for the fall semester. This  mandatory password change each fall and spring semester applies to both individual eIDs and group eIDs.  It prevents long-term use of the same password (a known risk factor) and is the reason passwords cannot be reused in a two-year period.

  • To change your password:  Sign in on the eid.k-state.edu website,
    click “Change your eID password”, 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 tips on choosing a good one, read the Password FAQs.

An e-mail reminder is typically sent to eIDs with unchanged passwords a week or
two prior to the deadline.
