on your Hoot Loot card or other documentation from the university), then create
a PIN.
PINS must be 4-12 characters longs and can be letters, numbers, or both.
- Click "Display record."

Type it in two more times, then click on "Display record."

PIN from your record. Then repeat the steps above to create a new PIN.
