Unity ID and Password
As an NC State student, you will have a Unity ID and password, which are your credentials to access campus-wide computing services and facilities. You should never share your Unity password with anyone.
In addition to your Unity ID and password, you must use Duo Security to access many university online services. Duo provides two-factor authentication for an additional layer of account protection.
Information about your Unity ID and password along with help are provided during student orientation sessions, from the NC State Help Desk, and online on the OIT website.
