What is my Self-Service Banner PIN?
There are various PINs that you must know when using Self-Service Banner. This guide will help you determine what PIN number you need and where to go to find it.
Note: A Self-Service Banner PIN is different than your MCLA Account password.
Initial PIN
If you are logging into Self-Service Banner for the first time, your initial PIN is your birthday in MMDDYY format (6 digits). For example, if your birthday was January, 14th, 1988. Your initial PIN would be 011488. The purpose of the initial PIN number is to allow you to set up a login PIN number and challenge question in case you forget the PIN you set. The initial PIN expires as soon as you use it and reset it to a login PIN.
Note: When logging in your MCLA User ID is your ‘A’ number with a capital A.
