Password Requirements

Effective fall 2006 all passwords on the Academic Network must be a minimum of 6 characters in length and should include one numeral or special character.

Some suggestions include:

  • Mix Upper and Lower Case Letters – Passwords are case-sensitive.
  • Mix Letters and Numbers – Add numbers to passwords, especially in the middle (not just at the beginning or the end).
  • Include Non-Alphanumeric Characters – Special characters such as &, $, and > are acceptable.
  • Pick a Password You Can Remember – The best password in the world does you no good if you forget it.
