Trouble logging in?

Here are some things to check:

  • Are you typing your Password correctly? Passwords are case-sensitive.
  • Is your Caps Lock on?
  • Are you confusing the letter “O” with the number “0”?
  • Are you confusing the letter “l” with the number “1”?

First time user?

Here are some things to know:

  • Your User ID & Password is the same for all WSU Tech systems (Network, WebMail, Blackboard, MyWSU Tech).
  • Your User ID should be your first initial and your last name. e.g. John Smith = jsmith (not case sensitive). Exceptions are if you have the same first initial & last name as a previously enrolled student. In this case your user ID would have a number appended to it (i.e. a 1, 2, etc.). For example if a John Smith enrolled, and WSU Tech already had one jsmith, your user ID would be jsmith1.
  • NOTE: Before you can log into Blackboard, WebMail or MyWSU Tech for the first time you must change your default password: It can be changed by:
