U-Pass and Campus Card Combined for Fall 2024
This fall, the U-Pass transit pass and your Carleton student Campus Card are combined. If your Campus Card was issued before Monday, July 1, 2024, you will add the new transit application to your card at the Campus Card Office in 407 Nideyinàn during office hours. You will be enrolled in the program and your U-Pass will be activated as soon as you meet the eligibility requirements. This process replaces the blue U-Pass card and reloading method. If you received your Campus Card after Monday, July 1, 2024, the transit application is already on your card. Your U-Pass will be activated automatically. Visit the U-Pass website for more information.

Join TA Central Hub
The TA (Teaching Assistant) Central Hub, in Brightspace, is a portal for TAs to watch pre-recorded training videos, access resource materials and share resources related to teaching. If you are a TA and would like to enrol in the Hub, please contact Sam Shortt. Download our current TA Toolkit so you have a quick way to find all our resources and offerings: TLS TA TOOL KIT 2024-2025.
Update Your TA Profile
All Priority Teaching Assistants (TA) can update their TA Profile immediately after accepting their TA award through the TA Management System in Carleton Central. You do not have to be registered nor have paid your tuition fees in order to fill in your profile. As these profiles are used to determine appropriate and relevant assignments, it is not only important to fill in your profile but also important to keep your information updated. As long as you are an active TA, you can easily update your profile through Carleton Central. Please note that you must be a registered full-time student to be a TA. Please visit the official TA website here.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Self-Enrolment, and Authenticating Without a Network Connection
To enhance the security of the Carleton University community, students, faculty and staff are being enrolled in Microsoft Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). During the Fall 2024 semester, graduate students will automatically begin seeing prompts to set up MFA when they attempt to log into Microsoft 365 services using their MyCarletonOne password. However, students who wish to self-enrol in Microsoft MFA before they begin seeing prompts can do so by visiting this page and clicking the Self-Enrol Now button. Additionally, the Microsoft Authenticator app now works to authenticate you even when you are not connected to Wi-Fi, or if you don’t have active cell service. Learn how to authenticate without a network connection.
Campus Map and Tunnel System
Familiarize yourself with our campus map and underground tunnel system to navigate campus easily.
