How do I find out my SSO?
New students are automatically assigned a Single Sign-On (SSO) which is also known as a User ID. Your SSO was e-mailed or mailed to you when you applied for admission. If you do not know your SSO, you can get it by visiting www.umkc.edu/is/userpassword.asp and click on “Student Password Recovery Web page” and then click on “First Time Users” and follow the prompts. Your SSO will be displayed on the screen, but it will not be e-mailed to you.

*International students will be sent their SSO and a temporary password called a Bootstrap Password. See www.umkc.edu/registrar/pathway.asp for instructions on how to use the Bootstrap password.

How do I set-up the password for my SSO?
If you know your SSO and need to set or reset your UMKC password, go to www.umkc.edu/is/userpassword.asp and click “Student Password Recovery Web Page.” Then click “Current Users.” You will need the following information to reset your password:

• UMKC SSO (username)

• Date of birth

• UMKC Student ID number

• The last four digits of your Social Security Number

The first time you set your password, do not be concerned about the security question, go ahead and enter the last four digits of your Social Security number and click enter. The system will recognize you, and you will be able to setup a security question on the next screen. If you previously set your password, you will need to know the security question in order to re-set it. Answers to the security question are case sensitive, so remember exactly how you entered it. For detailed instructions on how to set-up  your initial password, visit www.umkc.edu/registrar/passwordsetup.pdf.

If you already know your password and would like to change it to something else, visit the Account Password Change Web site at https://auth1.umkc.edu/Secure/APC.asp.
