Former students not enrolled within the past two years must complete the Former Student Questionnaire. Once completed, you will receive an email with instructions to create a new account. You will use that username and password to log in.
Please note: former students with an active university student loan may continue to log in with their NetID and password until the loan is paid in full.
Parents/Guardians
Parents and guardians use their own username and password to log in.
Parents and guardians must receive authorization from their student before they can access student academic records, financial aid, tax forms, and other services. Instructions for setting up parent/guardian access are available in the Knowledge Base.
If you are a parent/guardian searching for billing and payment information, please visit Texas A&M University’s Bill Payment Suite–this requires parents/guardians to create an account separate from Howdy.
