Initial Login Questions
What is my User ID and PIN?
Your User ID is your Social Security Number, or the number found on the front of your ID card. This number begins with the @ symbol and must be included in your user ID. All students who entered NYLS as of Summer 2005, including visitors and LL.M students must use their student ID instead of their SSN.
Your PIN is a 6-digit number, which will function like a password. Your initial PIN is your birth date in the form of MMDDYY. For example, a birth date of February 3, 1976 would be entered as 020376. If a date of birth was not submitted when you applied to the law school your default PIN is the last six numbers of your ID.
What is the " PIN has Expired" Message?
That is a good message!! This is the message you receive upon your very first successful log in. Now you must select a new PIN, a 6-digit number that is different from your birth date, but easy for you to remember. If you retype your birth date the computer will disable your account. This new PIN is the one you will use to access your information in the future.
What is the Login Verification Security Question and Answer?
If you ever forget your PIN, you can reset it yourself. After logging into Self Service you will be asked to enter your personal security question, along with the answer. This will enable you to reset your PIN without calling for assistance. To help you remember your answer, keep it short, limit spaces and do not use special characters. Your response is limited to 30 Characters.
System Exit and Security
How secure is my information?
EZInfo is a secure site that uses SSL encryption, which ensures that all data being transmitted between the browser and the web site is encrypted.
What is an SSL certificate and what do I do with it?
All leading web browsers are already enabled for SSL but some older browser versions may display a certificate that tells you that the site you are about to enter uses encryption. The certificate tells you its origin and asks if you wish to accept it. You should accept the certificate in order to securely connect to the website. Say yes to all defaults that the SSL certificate prompts.
How do I exit EZInfo?
Click the EXIT button in the upper right corner of the screen and then be sure to close your browser.
What happens if I do not logout of EZInfo?
You Must Logout in order to keep your information secure!!! If you exit but do not close the browser, someone else may be able to hit the back button on the browser and view your confidential information.
PIN, Security Question and general access Issues
What do I do if I forget my PIN?
Enter your User Id and click on the "Forget PIN?" button. You will be asked the security question you entered the first time you logged into the system. A successful answer will enable you to reset your PIN and gain access to your information. If you forget the answer to your security question you must contact the Registrar's office at 212-431-2300.
