"A" Number
The Student Identification Number is a randomly selected 8-digit number beginning with the letter "A" that has been created for students, faculty, and staff to protect an individual's social security number. The "A" number is used by students to log in to MyNSCC (Web for Students) to access grades, register, view holds, etc. Students are still required to disclose their SSN when they apply for admissions on the application form. This SSN is immediately converted to an "A" number for privacy. If a student wishes to not disclose his/her SSN, they should be aware that this could affect federal and/or state financial assistance.
Personal Identification Number (PIN)A student's personal identification number is used for verification purposes. The most common use is for access to the MyNSCC registration system. For more information or assistance using, resetting, or obtaining a PIN, please contact the Records Office at 615-353-3218 or the Computer Services Help Desk at 615-353-3678.
