Calls and inquiries into the Help Desk indicate there is some confusion regarding how to sign in to various systems on campus. We apologize for this confusion. This situation is the result of our gradual progress toward the goal of reducing the number of system sign-ons, with the eventual objective being a single sign-on for the campus -- where one user name and password will give you access to the systems you need. We are making progress but are not there yet. Below is what faculty, staff, and students need to know about logging in: 

Students

Classrooms and labs, WCU wikis and blogs, onlinetraining.wcu.edu, courseval.wcu.edu 
- username: first part of Catamount email address (before the @)
- password: PIN

WebCat, Moodle, MyCat, iTunesU, IT software downloads, wireless registration 
- username: 92 number
- password: PIN 

Library resources from off-campus
-username: your last name
-password: 92 number

92 Numbers: To ensure privacy and better protect the identity of students, faculty and staff, Western Carolina University issues 92 numbers. These numbers generally begin with the digits 92.

PIN: If you have forgotten your PIN, you will need to go by either the OneStop (132 Killian Annex) or the ITS Help Desk. A picture ID is required.
