Pitt Passport is the University’s single sign-on service that delivers a consistent, trusted login experience across a range of University services.
Information about University accounts and account activation
You will be presented with the FRA in Pitt Passport twice per academic year: once in early October, and again in early March. After you accept it, a copy of the FRA will be sent to your University email address for your records.
Beginning with spring 2015 graduates, graduating students can keep their Pitt Email (Outlook) mailbox, including all of the contents, for as long as they like. As an alumnus, you will also have access to a variety of other IT services.
How to access resources from external institutions (NIH)
The Self-Service Account Activation process is used by Pitt applicants, students, and employees for setting up their University Computing Account. A University Computing Account is the key to accessing technology resources at the University — including email, PittNet Wi-Fi and wired networks, computing labs, and Pitt Worx.
Unused Alumni computing accounts present a security risk. Beginning July 10, 2024, individuals who have not used their Alumni account in 180 days will receive an email explaining that their account will be deactivated in 28 days.

Technology checklist for graduating students
Pitt Passport is the trusted, single sign-on service that presents a uniform login experience for all University web-based services. With Pitt Passport, Pitt users see the same, familiar login page and web address when they connect to web services provided by the University. This service can also be used to provide secure logins for department services including hosted (on-premises) and cloud-based.
This change is occurring because Pitt IT is enabling Modern authentication for Pitt Email on May 20 in response to Microsoft’s announcement that it is ending support for Basic authentication.
