GET

The signin process for new students may be a bit different than it is for current students.

1. The User ID for GET is your 9-digit CIN. Your CIN can be found on emails from the Admissions Office, or if available, your Golden Eagle Card (student ID card).
2. The password for GET begins with the letters GET followed by the 4-digit PIN you were assigned. For example if your PIN is 1234 your password is GET1234.
3. Using the User ID and password described above, you can Login to GET (opens in new window).
   Current students should sign in using the MyCalStateLA portal.

The GET Self-Service Student Center page allows applicants to track the progress of their admission application, update contact information, and view their To Do List. More information about the Student Center page can be found later in these instructions.

The Personal Information section of Student Center contains important information that you can change or correct.

• Addresses: view your addresses by "type" e.g. home, mailing, and business.

  To change your current address, locate the address to be changed and click on the appropriate address label, e.g. Mailing Address, Home Address. Update the information and click save. You can also enter an address change that will take place in the future - just enter the date when the change is effective and click save.

• E-mail Addresses: View your e-mail addresses by "type" e.g. home, on-campus, and other. You can add new or update existing e-mail addresses.

  To change your current e-mail address, click the e-mail address link within Personal Information. Select the e-mail to be changed, enter the new address and click Save.

  Important: Always check your Cal State LA E-mail address (located at the top of the page), since Cal State LA sends Official Notifications there.

• Emergency Contact: View the name, address, and phone numbers for your emergency contact. Add as many contacts as you wish.
• Demographic Information: View a summary of demographic data including date of birth, gender and CIN (Campus Identification Number). CIN is listed as ID.
  
• User Preferences help you navigate through the GET self service pages. The values include Institution, Academic Career, Term and Aid Year.

  Institution cannot be changed. You can update Career, Term and Aid Year, and your entries will save you time by auto-filling other menus. Remember to update these values to reflect new terms and new Financial Aid Years.
