Create a new account on:

  • All Systems
    (UCID, Academic Windows, and Highlander AFS)

It may take up to 24 hours for your account to be created.

  • UCID - Your UCID will be your username when you access NJIT's computing systems. This will also be your username to access your Mailhost account which is created automatically. Mailhost is the default mail system at NJIT. It is the primary student email system. Your email address will be in the form: yourUCID@mailhost.njit.edu. (It is recommended that you sign up for this account.)

  • Academic Windows - Primary Microsoft Windows environment for students. If you plan to use PCs in any of the public computing sites, you need to obtain an Academic Windows account to authenticate you as an NJIT student. This system will require its own password along with your UCID. (It is recommended that you sign up for this account.)


  • Highlander AFS - Primary academic computing for students, faculty, and researchers is provided via Highlander AFS. Services include programming, computation, Internet access, graphics, visualization, and many other applications. File management systems such as MYSQL (soon) and PHP are also available. Each AFS user is given a disk allocation of 125 MB. Personal webpages can be stored under the Highlander AFS system. (It is recommended that you sign up for this account.)

For more information about these systems, please read the "Major Places to Visit" section in the "Computing @ NJIT" guide for students.
