Registration Procedures

NetID and Password

Each student must have a UNM NetID in order to register for classes. This is required for many other important things such as checking financial aid, creating a UNM email account, and accessing online course content. Students must have been admitted to UNM at least one day prior to attempting to create their UNM NetID. There is no charge for this account. You may get your UNM NetID here: https://netid.unm.edu/form_new_netid.php. You will be asked for your date of birth and social security number to complete this process. You may maintain your UNM NetID here: (for example, get a new password): https://netid.unm.edu/
