A Cal Poly account is provided to staff and faculty when their relationship with campus begins, and is automatically revoked when their relationship ends. Human Resources and Academic Personnel coordinate with Information Technology Service (ITS) to manage that process.



New students are prompted to set up their account during the application process and will retain their account through their time as a student at Cal Poly. For detailed information about account activation and deactivation by role type, visit the Account Activation, Termination, and Extension self-help article.
