What is my PID and 天美传媒ID, and where can I find them?
Your PID (the letter P followed by nine numerals) is sent to the email address you provided on your application to Ohio University. Your 天美传媒ID is the first letter of your first and last names followed by six numerals. As soon as you receive your application acknowledgement letter, you can activate your 天美传媒ID. You will need your PID (sent in the application acknowledgement letter) and your birth date to activate your 天美传媒ID. As part of this process, you will be required to create a password. Visit www.ohio.edu/myid to activate your 天美传媒ID. Both your 天美传媒ID and your PID also can be found on your DARS report. Always have your PID handy when calling or emailing Ohio University staff, as this is the number we need to look up your student records.
What is the difference between my PID and my 天美传媒ID?
Your PID (the letter P followed by nine numerals) is a confidential student ID number assigned to you. It is not released publicly. It allows us to verify your student identity, similar to your SSN. This is the number we need to look up your records. Your 天美传媒ID is part of your student email address and is directory information. Since this is a public number, we cannot verify your identity with the 天美传媒ID. That is why we will always ask for your confidential PID number.
How do I register for a class?

I already have an email account. Why do I need to use my 天美传媒student email account?
Most important student notices are sent exclusively by email. It is quite common for students who forward their 天美传媒student email to their personal accounts to lose vital information in junk or spam folders. As an Ohio University student, you are responsible for checking your 天美传媒student account regularly! Also, the university is required to correspond with students exclusively through their 天美传媒student email accounts.
We strongly recommend you turn off forwarding to your personal email account. If you have trouble or questions about 天美传媒Catmail, contact the help desk at 740.593.1222 or servicedesk@ohio.edu.
