- On the Verify Identity page, enter your uniqname and click Submit.
- Provide either your date of birth or your UMID number, and then click Submit.
- On the Get a Code page, you will see the account recovery information you provided in the past. It will be partially masked for your security. If you entered both a mobile phone number and an email address, you will need to choose which of the two you want your password reset code sent to. Select or confirm where you want to receive the password reset code, then click Submit.

If you have not received a code in one hour, and you had it sent to your non-UMICH email address, check your email junk or spam folders. If the code is not there, phone the ITS Service Center at 734-764-HELP (4357) for a password reset. You will be taken to the Change Password page in UMICH Account Management, where you can set a new password.

How to set up Wolverine Access friend account

- You will see a Message Sent screen letting you know that a message has been sent to the email address you provided with further instructions.
- Open your email and look for a message from friend-noreply@umich.edu. Check your spam or junk mail folder if you don’t see the message.
- In that message, click the Create Friend Account link.
- Clicking the link will take you to the Create a Friend Account webpage.
- Enter your email address, the same one you used in Step 2 above.
- Enter and re-enter the password you want to use for your Friend account.
- Click Set Password.
- A confirmation screen lets you know that your Friend account has been created.
- You will also receive an email message confirming the creation of your Friend account and providing you with information about it. Check your spam or junkBmail folder if you don’t see the message.
