If you've forgotten your PIN or locked yourself out, the website allows you to safely gain access to your room using a smartphone or mobile device.
Setting or resetting your door PIN
To begin, access the Cav Card website. If you are not already logged in via NetBadge, select "Student & Staff Login" in the navigation menu, then log in. NetBadge provides secure authentication using your personal digital certificate or computing ID and email password.
After logging in via NetBadge, navigate to the Set your 4-digit PIN page (under "Account Management" > "Set/Reset Your PIN" in the navigation menu).
Enter a four-digit PIN, enter it again to confirm, and click the blue "Reset" button.
When selecting a PIN, please avoid duplicate numbers and easy-to-guess number sequences such as 3333, 1234, etc.
Using Mobile ID to unlock your door
The CBORD Mobile ID App has been discontinued as of June 30. Please ensure you have your physical ID card.
More information will be coming soon about Mobile ID Wallet.
