<p>All students of the University now have a seperate ID number from your Social Security. Starting with ED2 acceptees you should be given your GWid, if you do not have it retrieve it at <a href="http://gwid.gwu.edu%5B/url%5D">http://gwid.gwu.edu</a></p>
<p>Now that you have your GWid follow these instructions to create your GW email account!</p>
<h2>Instructions were originally written by me on the GW myspace group</h2>
<p>Welcome to GW and congratulations on your acceptance!
a. These are instructions on how to create your GW Email or also known as CMail (
Colonial Mail) account for all new undergraduate students. This is also referred to as your NetID, which is used for all GW internet services except GWeb. You can only create your new NetID if you deposit has been received and confirmed by the Admissions department.</p>

<blockquote> <p>If you have created your new pin, skip to step 3 (logged in GWeb)<< 1. Login to GWeb using your GWid as your Username and your birthday as your password, e.g. May 01, 1988, enter 050188 !!!If you fail once do not try again with out starting over too many errors cause an account lock out, which is a pain to recover from. To access GWeb: <a href="http://my.gwu.edu/mod/banweb%5B/url%5D">http://my.gwu.edu/mod/banweb</a> 2. Once logged in it should say your pin has expired, set a new one 3. Go to the GW LDAP Account Creation Page To access the GW LDAP Account Creation Page: <a href="https://amc.gwu.edu/cgi/acctmgmt/create_ldap?verify=pin%5B/url%5D">https://amc.gwu.edu/cgi/acctmgmt/create_ldap?verify=pin</a> 4. Enter all information asked and use the NEW pin 5. Click submit and wait a few minutes for the account to be activated</p> </blockquote>

<p>Your account will be "your username"@gwu.edu</p>
<h2>After it is created I would recommend that you create a Facebook Account and join the 'Class of 2010' group, then maybe go on a friend binge....</h2>
