Password Rules

For your security, Skidmore requires that your password be between 6 and 8 characters in length. It must contain both upper and lower case alpha characters, at least one numeric character, and at least one special character from this set { } ! # ” $ ’ % ^ & , * ( ) _ + - = : ; ? .

The @ sign is an invalid character. The password may not match 3 consecutive characters of your user name, nor may it be an exact reversal of your user name.

Avoid using consecutive characters of your first, middle or last name in your password. Doing so will cause your password to fail for email.

The following are examples of acceptable and unacceptable passwords.
