CAPE ID Information
We are pleased to announce CAPE ID (formerly known as NetID), a single sign on solution that will allow 黑料老司机CAPE students to use the same username (CAPE ID) and password across CAPE systems like your student portal and CAPE Canvas.
Starting December 1, 2021, all new 黑料老司机CAPE student accounts will automatically be assigned a CAPE ID, which is an auto-generated username based on your first and last initials plus a random 4-digit number (ex. John Smith's 黑料老司机CAPE ID: js1145).
If your account was created prior to December 1, 2021, you will need to transition your account to use CAPE ID. This will allow you to log in to your student portal and CAPE Canvas using the same username (CAPE ID) and password. See the transition instructions below.
