What is MyRIC ID?

Your MyRIC ID consists of two parts, a MyRIC ID username and password.

Your username is constructed by taking your first ​initial followed by your last name, followed by an underscore "_" and the last four digits of your student ID. For example, if your name is Joe E. Doe and your student ID is 1234567, your username will be jdoe_4567. In the unlikely event that your username is not unique, your username will include an alphabetic character, e.g. jdoe_4567​a.

To begin using your RIC account (or to regain access to RIC email, Blackboard, and MyRIC), you will need to set an initial password. Set a new password by visiting Setting your Password.

NOTE: To further enhance security for students, the system will require strong passwords (i.e., passwords containing 10-14 characters, no names or repeating characters and at least one of each of the following: upper case, lower case, number, and a special character). 

If you require assistance, please contact the ITS Help Center (401-456-8803 or helpdesk@ric.edu) or visit the walk-in lab at Whipple Hall Room 102.

Your student email account consists of your first initial, last name, an underscore (_), the last four digits of your MyRIC ID and @email.ric.edu. For example, if your name is John E. Doe and your student ID is 1234567, your email account information will be jdoe_4567@email.ric.edu.
