Wildcat Passwords

Wildcat passwords are used with a Wildcat account. The Password Self Service portal allows users to update their Wildcat password as well as manage other password options.  Password Self Service can be accessed at: password.weber.edu

Weber State University students and employees use secure non-expiring passwords. Employee and special access accounts also utilize Duo 2-Factor Authentication for extra security.
