Incoming Students

Here are the instructions that students should follow when attempting to enter the St. John’s University System for the 1st time.    

Step 1: Login to the University Information System (UIS) to establish your account and password.

To log into UIS visit http://apollo.stjohns.edu

Your User ID is either your X-number (capital 'X') or your Social Security number (no dashes).

Your PIN / Password is a 6-digit password (numbers only).  By default this is set to your birth-date [mmddyy] or the LAST 6 digits of your X-number, UNLESS you have changed it to a new 6-digit password.

 

Step 2: Login to St. John's Central (SJC)

To log into St. John's Central visit www.stjohns.edu/central

Your username is your email address without "@stjohns.edu".  It is in the following format: firstname.lastname## where '##' represents the 2-digit year of entry into St. John's University.

Your password is the same as your 6-digit UIS PIN / Password. 

 

Step 3: Set-up your Live@EDU e-mail for the 1st time. This process only has to be done once.

Once you have logged in to St. John's Central (SJC) click on the e-mail button on the upper right hand button.

Follow the Instructions in this PDF: http://facpub.stjohns.edu/~sjcontent/LiveEdu/Setup.pdf

 

Hints:

1. If you are not sure of your email address, please log into UIS to verify your email address. Once you have logged into UIS, click on "Personal Information" and then "View E-mail Addresses".  Your school email address should be listed there.  If it is not listed, this means that you are not currently registered for classes.  Only currently registered students have an email account and can access St. John's Central.

2. Allow for 5-15 minutes for the password change on UIS and then log into St. John's Central (www.stjohns.edu/central). 

3. Username for SJC is your email without "@stjohns.edu" and password is SAME as the UIS 6-digit PIN / Password. 

4. Please do NOT change your PIN more than once in day.

5. Both UIS and St. John's Central share the same pin/password.
