IU's Account Management Service is designed to assist students, faculty, staff, affiliates, and guests in creating and managing their computing accounts and passwords. You will open your official IU account through Account Management Service. This account is referred to as your ADS (Active Directory Service) account. All IU Kokomo students will need to have an ADS account to logon to the computers in the open lab, computer classrooms, Learning Enhancement Center, and the library. For more information or to get help with this account, stop by the IT Helpdesk located in the library's information commons.
IU E-mail (Exchange) Account (Faculty and Staff Only)
Faculty and staff use Exchange e-mail accounts. You can access this from home by going to www.exchange.iu.edu. You can forward your e-mail to another account from the Account Management Service page.
E-mail Account—Students
When you setup your ADS (Active Directory Service) account , (also known as your IU network ID and password), you need to select an IU e-mail account at that time. This will be the official method of communication from Indiana University Kokomo to students.
If you did not setup your e-mail account at the time you setup your ADS account, you can still set up this account by going to the Accounts Management Service page. Select " Create more IU computing accounts, set e-mail forwarding, and manage my existing accounts and passwords " to create a Cyrus e-mail account.
Your IUK e-mail addresses includes your username (from your ADS account) and ends with @iuk.edu (e.g. username@iuk.edu). You can use webmail.iuk.edu to access your email account.
For more information about your e-mail account, please see the IU Knowledge Base document on "Features of IU Webmail."

IT will notify the requestor when the accounts are ready.

After the workshop, please send the log sheet to the Helpdesk (KA140). When the workshop has ended, IT will disable the accounts.
