All domain passwords expire every 120 days requiring users to change their passwords on the UVI domain (on campus). If your password expires while you are away from campus users will not be able to access technology resources from off campus. All domain passwords MUST be changed on campus. If you plan on being away from campus for an extended period of time like vacation, semester breaks or on sabbatical leave, it’s always a good idea to change your password before you take off or if you don’t remember when your password will expire just change it, to be on the safe side.
Simple sets to change your password:
 After logging in to the domain
 Press Ctrl/Alt/Delete
 Select change password
 Follow steps to change your password

If you have any questions on our technology tip bits, please contact helpdesk@uvi.edu for more information.
