Northwest Missouri State University


Username/Password Info

Every student, faculty or staff member at Northwest is automatically given a Northwest PC (NT) username with 50 megabytes of email storage for students and 100 megabytes of email storage for faculty/staff. Additionally, students are given 30 megabytes of personal storage on the NT network. Faculty and staff are given 300 megabytes of personal storage.

Students who are pre-registered will typically obtain usernames and passwords during their orientation. However, students can also obtain their usernames and passwords from the Personal Information section of their CatPAWS account or from the Data Processing office in the Administration building.

Students, faculty and staff who are having trouble logging into their account with their password should contact the Client Computing-Information Systems Help Desk at 660-562-1634.
