You only need to remember one username and password to access most school resources.
Usernames and School Login Id's
Your username and School Login ID refer to the same thing: The first part of your email address, before the @ symbol. For example, if your email address is abc1234@po.pacificoaks.edu, your username and school login ID is abc1234.
Passwords You can reset your password 24-hours a day using the Password Reset tool. If you run into problems, contact the Help Desk; you'll find a link to their contact information in the Navigation menu on the left.
