AOS ID

With your AOS ID, you can access numerous technical services with just one account. Our IT department uses FreeIPA technology to create a single identity account for you. You can log into department websites, servers, printing, remote access, and other services.

Managing your AOS ID

First, make sure you are connected to the AOS network. If you are off-campus, please refer to Remote Access

You can manage your AOS ID by pointing your browser to https://auth.atmos.ucla.edu.

Accept the self-signed certificate by adding the exception or agreeing to continue. Then you can log in with your credentials.
