Single Sign-On: How to Self-Register

• Open the registration page, or click "New User?" from the Single Sign-On page.
• Enter your official UCSD e-mail address (abcd@ucsd.edu, not abcd@dept.ucsd.edu).
• Click Register.

• You will be asked to supply:
  • Your UCSD employee ID (found on your paystub or UCSD ID card)
  • The last 5 digits of your Social Security number
  • Your birth date
• This will generate an e-mail containing a secure link (registration ticket). For security reasons, this ticket is tied to your current browser session. Therefore, do not exit or close your browser, or you will have to restart the process.

• Check for a new e-mail titled “UCSD Single Sign-On Registration Confirmation.”
• Click the link in the e-mail (or cut and paste the address into your active browser session).

For security reasons, this step must be completed within 30 minutes, or you will have to restart the process.

If you don't receive your confirmation via e-mail, check with your department security administrator (DSA) or system administrator to be sure your e-mail account is configured to receive official UCSD communications.

• Choose and confirm a password (following the security guidelines) and press Continue.
• You will have access to selected UCSD systems such as "MyLeaveBalances" and "My Dashboard."
• If you need access to other Link Family business applications (e.g., FinancialLink), see How to Get Access to UCSD Business Systems.
