Online Alumni Troubleshooting Tips

SNHU online alumni may experience issues accessing certain SNHU single-sign on resources or websites. In these instances, online alumni can follow the steps below to gain access to these SNHU career sites!

  • Several SNHU career websites available to online students and online alumni (like SNHU AWATO, SNHU Handshake and SNHU SkillsFirst) often require a SNHU email address to access them.
  • Online alumni who no longer have a active SNHU email address are highly encouraged to call SNHU IT directly at 1-855-877-9919, and ask that their SNHU email address be reactivated/reinstated. 
  • We would recommend alumni call while at their computer, so they can test out that the email has indeed been reactivated.
  • You can also view the online Alumni resources page, which lists information related to SNHU email address access or resetting your email password.
