About MyUHV IDs:

Your MyUHV ID is a seven-digit number (e.g., 1234567) that allows UHV students to check their admissions status, register online for courses, check financial aid status, and pay tuition.

You'll need your seven-digit MyUHV ID to log into the Blackboard system. Below is a list of general questions you may have regarding MyUHV IDs. Click on the links below to see specific information.

What if I Don't Know/Can't Remember MyUHV ID?

Okay. I've Called UHV and have MyUHV ID to log into Blackboard, but what Password do I Use?
The first time you log into Blackboard you will have an initial password in the mmddyyx! format, as follows:

• mm is your two-digit birth month
• dd is your two-digit birth day
• yy is your two-digit birth year
• x is the first character of your last name in lowercase-letter format
• ! (exclamation point - Shift + 1 on your keyboard)
• For example, if your birthdate is January 15, 1980, and your name is Jane Smith, then your initial password for Blackboard is 011580s!

The mmddyyx! initial password will expire the first time you log into the UHV Blackboard system. Before you can see your online course(s), you will have to create a new password and log back into the system.

UHV Blackboard passwords expire every 90 calendar days. You can change your Blackboard password at any time by selecting the My Settings option + clicking the Change Password button under the My Profile tab.

If I Change my Password In Blackboard and I'm Signing in with MyUHV ID, does this Change my Password in the Student Records System (also known as "MyUHV")?
No. The Student Records Self Service System (also known as "MyUHV") is used to register for classes, check grades, view rosters and UHV class schedules, etc. Blackboard is the system you use to complete online and web-based courses. The two systems are separate and changing your password in one will not change your password in the other.
