All students have two login accounts at CUA: Cardinal Station and CUA network.

Your CUA network account allows you to log onto any networked computer, gives you access to your CUA e-mail, your "M" drive (for storing files on a protected, backed-up network server), register for exams and more.

For new students, your network logon account is created when you matriculate.  Your network logon username and first time, temporary password can be found by logging onto Cardinal Station and navigating to Student/Faculty Self-Service, Portfolio, Your Email and Network Login.

Your student CUA Network account username is composed of two digits plus your last name (or part of your last name, depending on length and conflicts with similarly named people). Your password must be changed at least every 90 days, and should be hard to guess. To change your password, log on to http://home.cua.edu and navigate to the "Change Password" link.

If you forget your password, or have difficulty accessing your network account, please contact Computer Services.
