Details
Your UTD-ID is one of the two unique identifiers associated with your UT Dallas account - the other being your Net ID (abc123456 or DAL123456). The new NetID system launched in summer 2024.
The UTD-ID will have ten digits starting with 20 or 40 (e.g., 2012345678). In contrast with your NetID, which identifies you publicly, your UTD-ID is used primarily for identity verification as a replacement for your Social Security Number.
Important: You should keep your UTD-ID private. Do not disclose your UTD-ID to anybody, except for official UTD purposes.
