If you do not have NoMAD on your system, please contact the Help Desk.

Click on the NoMAD triangle on the right side of the menu bar.

You should get the following menu.

Select Sign In and sign in with your HawkID and password

Once you are signed in, your NoMAD triangle will now have a green check mark and list the number of days until your password expires.

Once all signed in, it is really simple.  Click on the NoMAD triangle on the right of the menu bar.  A menu will drop down and select Change Password.

Once selected a change password box will appear.  Type in your current password, you new password, and verification of your new password.  Once done, click on the Change Password button.

That should change your HawkID password and all system passwords should remain in sync.
