Student Passwords

  Students are required to obtain TWO passwords to access vital IT services at UNSW@ADFA. These are:
     
   

1. Unipass

    2. ADFAPass
     
 

Both passwords need to be acquired separately, but students are able to change them to be identical. Please note that the Unipass has higher security settings and should be set first.

Please view the comprehensive Tip Sheet "About ADFAPass and UNIPASS Passwords", available from the ICTS Service Desk Tip Sheets and Forms web page, for further information.

   
   
Note: The login ID for all UNSW@ADFA IT services is 'z' followed by a student ID number (e.g. z1234567)
 
1. Unipass
    A Unipass password is used to access myUNSW. This site is where all UNSW students access personal academic records and change enrolments.
    Students must have a valid Unipass password to enrol in new courses.
   
  New Unipass passwords
    All students should be able to create their own Unipass password. Please contact Student Administrative Services with any problems.
   
  1. Go to myUNSW (link opens new window.)
  2. Click: 'New to myUNSW' below the login prompt.
  3. Click: 'Create a new Unipass here'.
  4. Complete the required information. The information can be found on your letter of offer. If you do not have this letter, contact Student Administrative Services.
  5. Create and confirm your password. Please note, your new password cannot be a word from an English dictionary; cannot be a word preceded or appended by a single number; and cannot be a variation of your login ID.
  6. Go back to myUNSW and login.
   

Some acceptable Unipass passwords are:

  • bird2%brain
