It is important that you remember your Banner ID as it will often be used to help identify you to University systems and offices.

NetID

For New Undergraduate, Graduate, International, and Study Abroad Students your NetID is the first letter of your first name, followed by the first 4 letters of your last name, then a number. Your NetID and Brockport Email will be generated automatically approximately 240 days before your starting semester.

For Transfer Students only your NetID to access DegreeWorks to view transfer credits only will be created upon acceptance to Brockport. Your Brockport Email address will be generated within 72 hours of paying your deposit to attend Brockport.

For Employees your NetID is the first letter of your first name followed by your full last name. The process for an Employee NetID to be created will begin once they have been entered in the SUNY HR system by Brockport's HR office. Once official employee information is received on the automated report to BITS, the NetID will be created prior to the employee's start date.
