Extension and International Students taking Summer 2024 classes: Due to delays this year on paperwork processing ECI/CoE will not be informed of your class status until 2 weeks before the start of Summer quarter. Extension and International students may receive warning messages about their CoE account expiring in 30 days, 2 weeks, etc.. Please note that if you are already enrolled in Summer or Fall classes as of the end of 2nd pass for continuing students on June 21st, you should see no break in access and that your CoE account should automatically be extended before the start of Summer quarter on June 24th. |

UCSBnetID - Based on UCSB campus wide Identity. Used to sign into SSO portals.
Google Connect - Email and Google apps like Google drive.
Your default email is your UCSBnetID@ucsb.edu. Almost all other accounts at UCSB use the same Google account for email and give you additional email aliases, which you can see under settings (gear icon) >> see all settings >> accounts.
Defaults to campus SSO, but can be signed into using a variety of methods.
College Level Accounts - The College of Engineering, like the other 3 Colleges that make up UCSB has their own account system. They are not mutually exclusive and people can have accounts from multiple colleges.
CoE accounts grant you access to CoE resources such as the CSIL/Honea labs, CoE software, and CoE email aliases such as UCSBnetID@engineering.ucsb.edu and UCSBnetID@dept.ucsb.edu.
Coe Account invites are sent to everyone who is taking CoE class or research units if they do not already have a CoE account.
CoE accounts are not created automatically.
Already existing CoE accounts are reactivated and extended even if they are expired.
To see your current CoE information including expiration date, please login to: https://accounts.engr.ucsb.edu/maintain/login
Service accounts - These are accounts that provide you access to a particular service such as the UCSB Library or Adobe Federated ID for those whose departments have purchased Adobe Licenses through the Campus office of Software Licensing. Many accounts use SSO as a default, but can use their own logins if SSO is not available.
