New Account Setup

Your ONUnet account is used for logging into campus computers, campus wireless, accessing My.Olivet, off-campus library database access, and many other Olivet resources.

Once you have received you username and default password please complete the following setup actions.  If you have your username, but do not know your default password, please contact us.

Step 1 – Personalizing Your ONUnet Password:

1. Open a web browser and go to https://myaccount.microsoft.com;
2. Log in with your default password;
   • Example default password “ONU-6789smi”.
   • “ONU” is capitalized; don’t forget the hyphen after “ONU.”
   • Replace “6789” with the last 4 digits of your Social Security Number. If those 4 digits do not work, use the last 4 digits of your student ID number.
   • Replace “smi” with the first 3 letters of your last name, lower-case.
3. Set up at least 2 verification/recovery methods (Microsoft authenticator app / mobile number) for your account if you have not already done so in the previous step. For detailed instructions go to https://it.olivet.edu/self-help/multi-factor-authentication-mfa;
