Password deadline
The deadline for all UGA students, faculty and staff to change their MyID password to a strong password is Jan. 31.

In accordance with university policy, all MyID passwords must be changed to comply with a set of security standards that make passwords difficult to guess or compromise, thus protecting users against unauthorized access to their e-mail and other accounts.

Anyone who has not changed his or her password by Feb. 1 will not be able to access services that require the MyID.
