All students, faculty, and staff are assigned Carleton credentials—a username and password—which grants them access to most of the computer resources and online services they will use daily on campus.
The services that can be accessed using Carleton credentials include email, online file storage (e.g. Google Drive), the online Carleton directory, Moodle, Workday, and Zoom. Depending on their role at Carleton, they may also be given access to additional services and systems, such as OnBase and Advance.
Alumni and friends of the college may also be assigned Carleton credentials to allow access to college resources, including the alumni directory, and any or all of the resources available to students, faculty, and staff.
Getting Started
- Faculty and staff accounts may be claimed before their first day of work with a default set of rights determined by the department they work for and their specific job title. More details can be found here: New Employee Account Setup.
- Incoming student accounts are generally created in the spring preceding their arrival on campus. The Admissions Office and ITS send a joint email to the incoming student that contains their username and instructions on how to set their own account password.
- Participants in summer programs are also assigned credentials. The Summer Liberal Arts Institute staff communicate their usernames and instructions on setting their own password, much the same as regular Carleton students.
- St. Olaf students, visiting scholars, and friends of the college may also be assigned usernames and passwords. Contact the ITS Helpdesk at (x5999) for help requesting an account if needed.
