UC Irvine provides free WiFi for a limited number of sessions. Detailed information about UCInet Mobile Access Registration can be found at the Office of Information Technology.
Alternatively, currently enrolled students may obtain a UCInetID. A UCInetID is an electronic identification used for online services at the University of California, Irvine. Services such as a UC Irvine email, online library access, and Mobile Access (WIFI) require students to use their UCInetID and password in order to log in. It is for individual use only and students should not share their password with anyone else.
UCInetIDs are valid for one quarter. Students must be enrolled in a course to obtain a UCInetID. Students may obtain a UCInetID as they enroll for courses through our online registration system. Otherwise, students may contact the Student Service Office at (949) 824-1010, Monday-Friday, 9am-4pm (Pacific). The quarterly fee of $10 for a UCInetID is non-refundable and non-transferable.
Unlike UC Irvine matriculated students, Continuing Education students cannot keep their UCI email address and/or Gmail account. Unfortunately, these services are only available to matriculated students who graduated with an Undergraduate or Graduate/Advanced Degrees from UC Irvine. Those who graduated from the Division of Continuing Education certification program do not qualify.
Duo Multi-Factor Authentication
Starting October 19, 2021, all students utilizing a UCInetID will be required to use Duo when logging onto UC Irvine services with their UCInetID.
Duo is a multi-factor authentication system that acts as an added layer of protection to accounts by using a second source of validation, like a cell phone or token, to verify the user’s identity before granting access. When a login attempt is made on a UC Irvine account, Duo will push a quick authentication message to the user’s device (phone or tablet), asking them to click “Approve” to continue logging in.
For more information about how to obtain a hardware token, please email the Office of Information Technology at oit@uci.edu. Please include your UCInetID in the email.
Visit the Duo Multi-factor Authentication page to get information about how to sign up, additional details, and news announcements. Students may enable Duo prior to October 19 if they obtained a UCInetID for Fall 2021.
A valid parking permit is required at all times when parking on campus. Parking regulations are enforced 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Vehicles without a proper permit will be cited. The GNA-DCE parking permit is available for purchase online through myCommute with a valid UCInetID. This convenient online process allows you to secure your permit easily from wherever you are, using an internet-connected device.
- Log in to myCommute
- Select the GNA-DCE permit option

View the instructional video for further details on how to purchase your permit.
If you do not have a UCInetID, please contact DCE’s Student Affairs & Student Services office at dce-services@uci.edu
