IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT NEW STUDENT IDs!!!


If you have been an Etudes student in the past, you may have a NEW student ID!! Beginning with the 2010 Summer Session all students using Etudes at College of the Siskiyous (COS) will be assigned a new Etudes User ID.  Your Social Security Number (SSN) or old COS ID will no longer be used to generate the last 5 digits of your Etudes user ID.

The last 5 digits of your new Student ID Number will be used for your new Etudes User ID.

Your new Etudes User ID will be:

  • the first 2 letters of your first name +
  • the first 2 letters of your last name +
  • the last 5 digits of your new Student ID Number (begins with "S")

Please be sure to use lower case.

EXAMPLE:  John Smith's User ID would be josm45678 (if his new Student ID number was S12345678)

Your new password will be:

  • Month and Day of birth in the school records, represented by 2  characters each (mmdd)
  • Example: Birthday is April 11th, 1982 (04 / 11 / 82)
  • Password = 0411

You will still have access to your old account for now.  If you do not need to access your old course information, please log in using your new ID exclusively. Please be aware that if you have two accounts and forget your password, you may not be able to reset your password automatically through the Etudes site. Please call 938-5222 during the hours shown or e-mail us at etudes.help@siskiyous.edu.

If you do not have your new Student ID you can visit the Admission and Records Office on the COS Weed Campus or call (530) 938-5900. More information about myNAVIGATOR can be found on the myNAVIGATOR Help page.
