SIS users who have a non-NetID username may need to authenticate using their NetID username and password. This change may also require an update of saved SIS login links.

Update 07/24/2017:

Since the NetID change went live this weekend, we’ve had some users report issues accessing SIS.

  1. clearing cache and cookies on a browser enables the download of the latest version of a website's information (See the kb article on Clearing Browser Cache and Cookies )

  2. people using a bookmark should update it using the URL from a working link

An login step has been added to the login procedure for SIS users with a non-NetiD username. They will now be prompted for their NetID and password. If they have already authenticated for their NetiD credentials, they will not be prompted as long as their session is active.

People who use a bookmarked link to SIS may need to update it.
