3) Click on the Log In tab on the upper right-hand side of the screen.

5) Click on the Submit button located below the password box.
6) Once you have logged in, a Change Password tab will appear next to the log out tab.
7) Enter your user name in the field labeled User Name. (NOTE: You can’t change your user name, only your password.)
8) Enter your old password in the field labeled Old Password.
9) Enter your new password in the field labeled New Password. (NOTE: Your password should contain uppercase letters, lowercase letters and numbers. Your new password needs to be at least 6 characters in length.) Your new password must be different than your last password.
