• Windows Account

If you wish to use any of the computer facilities at the Sawyer Business School (computer labs, technology classrooms, offices, etc.), you may do so by logging in with your personal Windows account.

The purpose of this account is to provide you access to the school’s computers, software, and network. Any full-time faculty or staff member automatically receives an account when they begin employment at the university.

Adjunct faculty are also eligible for a Windows account. These, however, are not automatically created, and must be requested by telephone, in person, or by sending an email to otm@suffolk.edu.

To log in to the Sawyer network (your computer), you must enter three pieces of information:

Username

  • First Initial, Middle Initial, Last Name
  • (e.g. John Doe will be jdoe or John N. Doe will be jndoe)

Password

  • A temporary password is assigned to you when you first receive your account. Upon first login, users are prompted to change their password.
  • Passwords are case-sensitive, and must contain three of the following three classes: upper-case, lower-case, numeric.

Domain

  • SAWYER

Note: Windows passwords will expire every 60 days and you will be prompted to change it. If you forget your password, contact the OTM Help Desk via telephone at x8524 or via email at otm@suffolk.edu and we will reset it for you. We do not store or remember any user passwords.
