When You Can't Log Into Your UNLV ACE Account
⚠️ Forgot your ACE password
Cause: You cannot recall your current password or it has expired.
Solution: Go to ace.unlv.edu and select the Forgot password? link. You'll be guided through a self-service reset process using your ACE username or university email and your preferred verification method (email, push notification, SMS, or voice call).
⚠️ Cannot complete Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
Cause: Your MFA device is unavailable, or you're not receiving codes/notifications.
Solution: If you're unable to use your primary MFA method, you might need to use an alternate method if you've set one up. If not, contact the IT Help Desk directly for assistance. They can help troubleshoot your MFA settings or provide temporary access.
⚠️ Account activation issues
Cause: You haven't received an activation email, or the link has expired.
Solution: If you're a new student, ensure you've accepted admission to UNLV. For both students and faculty/staff, check your personal email (the one provided on your application/during onboarding). You can also try self-activation at activation.unlv.edu. If problems persist, the IT Help Desk can assist.
⚠️ Locked out of your ACE account
Cause: Multiple failed login attempts or a security flag.
Solution: We know being locked out is stressful. First, try the Forgot password? process as a lock-out is often tied to password issues. If that doesn't work, contact the IT Help Desk at 702-895-0777 immediately. They are equipped to unlock your account swiftly.
