Website: Websites are available via the Marketing and Communications office.  To learn more about website options, please visit websites.nd.edu.

Departmental Shared Account Request (NetID): NetID's are available for purposes other than website or shared file space.   To request a NetID please complete the Departmental Shared Account Request form. 

Note: Existing shared NetID accounts are suitable for a variety of uses, and do not require the creation of additional accounts.

Guests and contractors of the university needing access to IT services can usually be best accommodated by a sponsor by submitting an Affiliate Access Request.

For security reasons, all account requests are subject to the OIT's review to ensure that they are unique, and that the business needs are not already met by another account or service.

• Requests require the name of an owner and administrator who accepts responsibility for the account.
• Owners and administrators must be current faculty or staff of the university.
• Shared accounts are subject to annual account removal. To prevent the account from being purged, an owner or administrator must monitor the email address for the account.
