CNM Login:

As a student, staff or faculty member, you receive a generated computer account. This account is required to access CNM's wireless network.  It is also the account you will use to log on to the computers in the lab or in your office.  Using your username and password allows you to access your network storage space.  

Your username is the first part of your CNM email address.  Example username@CNM.edu.

To activate your account go to: https://password.cnm.edu   (Note: do not include the usual www.)

Follow the “click here” link under the ‘Your username’ section to find your username. Note that your initial password is set to your 6 digit birthday (MMDDYY). Click the “Proceed to APR Login” button in the lower left once you’ve identified your username.

You will be prompted to answer three security questions and change your password the first time you successfully login to the APR system.

In the future, if you forget your password you will need to return to the APR system by going to https://password.cnm.edu.  The system will prompt you with these questions. CNM's Automated Password Reset System (APR) is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

If you have problems with your user account, please call the Helpdesk at ext. 4357.
