The University of Notre Dame grants access to University-owned information technology resources by issuing NetIDs to members of the Notre Dame community, persons affiliated with the University, and external consultants under contract. An individual will normally be assigned one personal NetID, and it will never be reassigned or transferred to another individual.

Individuals eligible for NetIDs include:

• Regular and non-regular faculty;
• Postdoctoral scholars (“post-docs”);
• Full-time, part-time and temporary on-call staff;
• Currently enrolled students, and prospective students who are admitted and confirmed;
• Retired faculty and staff as provided in the Notre Dame Faculty & Administrator Plan, the Staff Employee Pension Plan and the Academic Articles;
• Members of the Congregation of Holy Cross who are directly engaged with the University;
• Sponsored consultants with approval of the Chief Information Officer
• Employees or members of specific institutions or programs affiliated or collaborating with the University, with approval of the Chief Information Officer.

Unless they also belong to one of the foregoing groups, alumni of the University are not eligible for NetIDs.
