Reset Password Issue

MultiPass is the single master account for most major computer systems at Mines. If something is not working with a MultiPass, you may be able to recover your password yourself or report an issue for further support.

You may also report an issue for other non-MultiPass credentials that ITS helps manage.

NOTE: For Alumni Email Password issues, please use the Alumni Email Password Reset service.

NOTE for Former Mines Community Members: Trailhead access typically is not disabled (with email, ADIT, Canvas, etc.) after you leave Mines. Try logging in with your last known MultiPass password. If you are still having problems logging into Trailhead, call or visit the Mines Service Center (MSC: 303-384-2345, CTLM 156A) and ask for a Trailhead-only password reset. Additionally, if you have Mines alumni email access, your password for Trailhead might not be the same as what you use for email.
