<p>Hi, I am in the process of making my UW id and I dont know what the system key or the PAC is for UW Seattle. Does anyone know where to Find it?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance</p>
<p>Are you a newly admitted student or a transfer applicant? If it’s the first one, you should have probably gotten it with your letter. If you didn’t I would recommend contacting “the Registration Office, 225 Schmitz Hall or call 206-543-8580.” or Admissions. If you are a transfer, then you should wait until the end of this month and all instructions will be mailed out.</p>
<p>I haven’t heard back yet</p>
<p>Well, then you should probably wait 
Or contact Admissions.</p>
<p>I believe you set up your UW Net ID after you hear back about an admissions decision.</p>
<p>Did you get an email from uw a while ago? Look in your email and through your spam acct and see if you have one. That is how we knew to set up the uwnetid.</p>
<p>Just some advice about the UW net id – you will use it for EVERYTHING and it will be visible to all your teachers and classmates. CHOOSE SOMETHING PROFESSIONAL – not sexybaby15 etc.</p>
<p>Oh, for sure. I put my name on there as my UWID. Oh wait, I put my name on here as my CC-ID. Alas, they are not the same through, but yeah one is apodo-focused, the other is apellido-focused. That’s kinda my thing.</p>

<p>What UW student said … </p>
<p>Remember that it can be up to 8 characters, alphanumeric.
Common forms of the UW Net ID:
-last name (if unique enough that is still available)
-last name + first initial
-first initial + last name
-first name (if unique enough that is still available)
-initials + birth year
-initial</p>
<p>I’ve also seen old nicknames but unless you’re 100% sure you want the professional world to know about that nickname, don’t choose it. Choose something “boring” (in the eyes of some teenagers) instead.</p>
<p>I was blessed to have just my plain first and last name :)</p>
<p>Hahaha yeah I have my last name and it’s perfectly 8 characters. If any of my relatives with the same last name goes to UW, they’re going to have to deal with it ;)</p>
<p>My last name is technically much longer than 8, but whatever.</p>
