Office User Account Creation
IMPORTANT NOTE:
These instructions are designed to be used only if:
- You are an employee of Valdosta State University (including student assistants and graduate assistants)

If you are student attending Valdosta State University and are not employed by the university, please use alternate application steps listed here.
Step 1:
Click the OK button.

Note: To apply for an Active Directory account, you will need to make sure you are performing these steps on a computer that has been migrated to Active Directory. If the computer has not been migrated, it will still display the old Novell login screen instead. If this is the case, please use a different computer to create your account.
Step 2:
Enter the following login information and click the OK button.
Username: VSUGuest
Password: guest
Log on to: VSU

Note: Please be patient, as this process may take several minutes.
Step 3:
Double-click the Apply for Desktop Logon Account icon.
Note: Before you can apply for an Active Directory account, you will need to know your BlazeVIEW (Online Course) username and password. If you do not, please use the Self-Service Password Reset Tool to reset your password.

Step 4:
Click the Yes button.

Step 5:
Click the OK button.

Step 7:
Enter your BlazeVIEW password and click the OK button.

Step 8:
Click the Yes button.

Step 9:
Select the name of your division from the drop-down menu. Bear in mind that this is NOT the same as your department. Then, click the OK button.
Note: If you do not know which division you are employed by, please consult with your department head or department secretary.

Step 10:
Select the name of your department or division from the drop-down menu. Then, click the OK button.

Step 11:
Enter your phone number and click the Submit button.

Step 12:
