What is my initial password for my student account in your labs?

ITS has created student accounts for all students enrolled for Fall in the AD-ITS domain. These replace the STUDENT domain accounts from the previous academic year. These accounts share your email login name, but have a separate password. Students will need to login to the AD-ITS domain with a default password and then choose a new password of at least eight characters in length.
The initial password for students is of the pattern mmdd$xxxxxx where
mm - is the lower-case first two letters of the users' birth month

dd - is the day of the month the user was born

xxxxxx - is their six digit student ID number

Example: a student born August 16th with a student ID number of 867530 would have a first-time password of au16$867530
