Your BLUE Password
When you become an employee or a student at Creighton University, and are assigned a NetID, you will also be assigned a default BLUE password (also used for CUmail). You should always protect your password, it is the key to your identity at Creighton.
- Your default BLUE password
- Your BLUE password will expire
- Forgotten your BLUE password? Reset it
- Change your BLUE password
Your default BLUE password
By default, your BLUE password will be the word 'doit' followed by an @ symbol, and the last four digits of your Social Security Number. For example, if Billy Bluejay received his default BLUE password, it would look like this:
doit@1234
If you are using your default password as your working password, please change it as soon as you can.
Your BLUE password will expire
BLUE passwords are set to expire at 180 day intervals. Two weeks before expiration, you will receive an e-mail indicating that your password is about to expire. In addition, if you log on to a Creighton Windows computer during that period, you will be prompted to change your password.
If you do not change your password before it expires, it will become inactive, and you will have to reset it. Follow the directions below.
Forgotten your BLUE password? Reset it
If you have lost your password (or it has expired), you can reset it easily. You will need to visit the Account Management Interface (AMI) web site, and click on "Reset BLUE Password". You will be asked for your NetID, and your ISO number. Both can be found on your Creighton ID Card (an example is posted at the AMI web site).
If you do not have a Creighton ID Card (and don't happen to know your 16-digit ISO number), please call the Service Desk at 280-1111.
Change your BLUE Password
Changing your password regularly is one of the easiest ways to ensure that it stays safe. DoIT encourages every member of the Creighton Community to use strong passwords and to change them regularly.
To change your BLUE password, visit the Account Management Interface (AMI) web site and log in with your current NetID and password. Then choose "Change BLUE Password" from the list of links. You will be asked for your old password, and then asked to choose a new one.
Password must be at least eight characters long and you cannot repeat passwords. While our system does not require complex passwords, we encourage you to employ strong passwords. Please read up on choosing strong passwords.
