Are you having trouble logging in to see your GET account?
Here are a few ways to troubleshoot your problem:
- If you have already converted to the new login process, consider the following:
- Make sure you are using the correct email address as your Login ID
- If you forgot your password, try the Password Recovery option.
- After you create your Login ID and Password, to confirm it you need to log in the first time through the confirmation link we sent to your email.
- If you didn't receive an email with a confirmation link, check to see if it's in your spam folder.
- If you have not logged in since July 2009, we have changed the way you access your account. If you are using the Account Owner's SSN (Login information is linked to the account owner, not the student):
- You will need to go through the process of changing your login information. To do so, just follow the onscreen directions.
- Confirm your email address. This is your new Login ID. Please note that each Account Owner needs a separate and unique email address.
- Your password must be a minimum of seven characters and must include a special symbol (ex: ! % &).
Are you trying to open a new GET account?
- Did you enter Account Owner information?
- Are you getting an error that the email address you entered is already in use?
- First, try using another email address.
- If you are unable to proceed because the email is already in use, or if you made an error setting up the Account Owner, call the GET Contact Center at 1.800.955.2318.
- Each Account Owner needs a separate and unique email address.
