Finding Your U-Number

Your U-Number is your unique University identification number. It consists of the letter "U" followed by 8 digits. You should include this number, rather than your social security number, in all correspondence with the University. Do not supply your social security number unless specifically asked by a University employee who has a legitimate need to know it.

Your U-Number is also referred to as your University ID#, Banner ID#, or even Student ID#.

Use either the Spectrum portal or iAM to find your U-Number:

Spectrum Portal

  1. Login to the Spectrum portal.

  2. Students: Click on the "Student" tab.
    Faculty: Click on the "Faculty" tab.

  3. Students: Click on a link in the Registration Tools channel (try Registration Status).
    Faculty: Go to one of your Faculty Self Service links (Faculty Detail Schedule, Attendance Reporting, Final Grades, etc.).

  4. When the page appears, look in the upper right-hand portion of the screen: you should see your "U" number and name above the term and the day's date/time:
