Overview
This article is for UH sponsored individuals and UH departments on how to request a UH Affiliate Account.
Creating Your UH Account
A UH affiliate account expires after one year. Another memo will be necessary to extend the account one year.
Before you can get your UH Username from the online request system, ITS requires a memo from your sponsoring UH department or office on departmental letterhead identifying you and officially requesting that you have access to UH services and resources. The department's request should come to the Help Desk by way of a memo on departmental letterhead containing the following information:
- Dean/Director/Department Chair signature authorizing the request on behalf of the department
- New person's full name
- New person's date of birth
- Starting date for the new person's position
- Ending date for the new person's position
- Position title
- Name and phone number of a department contact who can provide the new person's full SSN (if applicable)
Disclosure of a person's full SSN is not mandatory, but is recommended; inclusion of the full SSN will allow for more accurate identification of a person's record and may prevent future service delivery issues.
Once the memo is created, you should:
- File Drop (link) this information to help@hawaii.edu for your request to be processed
- Once your request has been reviewed and approved, ITS will contact you or your department to notify the account has been created
- Afterwards, you may request your UH Username online from the UH Username Management (link) page by clicking on the Get a UH Username link
Your UH Username should be ready within six minutes -- Most services, such as MyUH (link), will be available to you once your UH Username is created. Your UH Email (@hawaii.edu) will be available for use after 15 minutes.
