NetBadge Resets/Duo Instructions - Students

NOTE:  If you are new to UVa-Wise you will need to email your text enabled cellphone number to NetBadge@uvawise.edu and ask that your email and cell number be added for NetBadge access. 

NOTE: If you have changed cell phones you need to download the Duo Mobile app and contact NetBadge@uvawise.edu and request that your Duo device be "reactivated".

NOTE: If you have a new cell phone number you will need to send an email to NetBadge@uvawise.edu and ask that your phone number be changed in Duo.


You will need to visit the Create or Manage Your UVA Computing ID and Password page in your browser to reset your NetBadge password:

  • Type in your computing id
  • Type in your Birth Date – formated mm/dd/yyyy
  • Check the Checkbox
  • Click SUBMIT
  • Choose “email sent to your recovery email address” which is the email address you used when you applied to the college or it could be your computingid@uvawise.edu
  • You will receive an email with a PIN, which you will use to complete step 3 “Validate” your identity and give you access to reset your password
  • Select I agree
  • Type in a password (at least 12 characters, including at least 1 number, 1 special character, Upper and lower case letters)
  • Retype the password  ( this is the password for NetBadge access *** this password changes neither your UVa-Wise access to login nor your @uvawise.edu email login)

    • Only follow this step if you were not redirected to the Duo enrollment page: Go to the 2-Step Login Management Portal and follow the prompts to complete the 2-step authentication (Duo) by registering your cell phone or choosing another method of verification. This is required by UVA.
  •  Go to the previous tab and click on “Identity and Access Management Portal” and choose “Create or manage your personal security questions”
