Question
What are the hours for the OIT Help Desk and how can I get assistance?
Answer
You can reach the OIT Help Desk via the following options:
- ServiceNow Self-Service Portal: servicenow.nd.edu (the knowledge base is available 24/7!)
- Telephone: 574-631-8111
- Walk-in: 115 DeBartolo Hall

For time-sensitive assistance, you'll generally receive the fastest response via Telephone, Walk-in or Chat.
In-person campus visits with any Help Desk employee may be limited to facilitate social distancing and so we can provide individual attention to each customer. You can make an appointment prior to your visit, or sign in via the kiosk when you arrive.
