Unable to enter recovery information

Sometimes while trying to claim an account, users may run into an issue where the system is unable to send a PIN code to verify your recovery information. If this happens, please try to enter in one type of recovery information at a time.
Example: Student tries to enter in a recovery phone number and email, but receives “unable to send pin code” error. The student would then try to enter only the phone number or the email, not both.

If you are an applicant and unable to proceed past entering your recovery information, you have the option of claiming your account with the simplified claim process here:
