<p>So I just set up my hoyamail using the NetID that was mailed to me a long long time ago.
Is it possible to change your net ID?</p>
<p>Generally speaking, no. [University</a> NetID Services: NetID FAQs](<a href=“http://uis.georgetown.edu/netid/faqs.html]University”>http://uis.georgetown.edu/netid/faqs.html)</p>
<p>*Can I change my NetID?
NetIDs are only changed in the small number of cases where a typographical error in the spelling of a person’s name has occured or the NetID spells an offensive word. Changing a NetID requires a great deal of coordination, effort, and care to ensure that a person’s access is not unduly interrupted and that the change is properly reflected through all systems which use NetIDs.</p>
<p>At this time, it is not possible to select your own NetID or to use a personal alias as an alternative email address.*</p>
