Log in errors

Solution:

Sorry, but our records show your account has expired. Please contact an administrator for assistance by calling 504-862-8888

Technology Services receives your enrollment information from the Department of Admissions on a daily basis. Unfortunately, in most cases it takes 2 business days for your updated information to appear within the Technology Services system.

How do you know if Technology Services has your admissions information? Check the Tulane University Phone Book. The e-academy website looks at this information when checking the credentials of an individual trying to log in. Usually, when Technology Services has your full enrollment information, your entry in the phone book will be 90%-100% complete. If you see your name, e-mail and affiliation only, then Technology Services does not have your full enrollment information.

If you enrolled in classes within the last 2 business days ... please wait an additional day. If you cannot log in then contact the Tulane University Help Desk at 862-8888.

If you enrolled in classes more than 3 business days ago ... contact the Tulane University Help Desk at 862-8888.
