MyNipissing Credentials

As of Spring 2010, please use your myNipissing credentials (user ID and password) to access Blackboard courses.

myNipissing Credentials for New Students

Your myNipissing user name is provided in the Registration Confirmation letter you should have received from the Registrar's Office. If you have misplaced this letter and cannot remember your user name, you can go to the myNipissing home page and select What's my User ID? in the Sign In area.

* * If you have not received the letter at all, please call: 705-474-3450 or 3461 x. 4521 or message the Registrar's Office. **

Your myNipissing password is initially set up to be your birthday in the format Mmmddyyyy. Thus, if your birthday is January 9th, 1984, your password would be Jan091984. If you change your password, note that passwords are case sensitive. This means that "Secret" and "secret" are different passwords, and typing in one when you mean the other will not work.

** If you are unable to access either myNipissing or Blackboard, please message University Technology Services (UTS) or call 705-474-3450 x. 4342.**

myNipissing Credentials for Returning Students

If you are a returning student and you used WebAdvisor in the past, the user ID and password that you used with WebAdvisor ARE your myNipissing credentials. Therefore, if you registered for your course online via WebAdvisor (which is part of myNipissing), the credentials that you used to sign up for your course will also get you into Blackboard.

If you realize that you cannot remember your myNipissing/WebAdvisor user ID/password, there are links on the myNipissing home page that can help you determine that (see image above).

** If neither of these utilities help, please message University Technology Services (UTS) or call 705-474-3450 x. 4342. **
