SIMS/R ACCOUNTS
In order to enhance security in accessing the SIMS/R student database, users can only access the database via a secure Web interface. Users previously accessed SIMS/R via a direct connection to the SIMS/R database. Beginning October 31, 2008, the direct client will be eliminated.
We are requiring that you re-submit a request for SIMS/R access if you still need to use the database. If you do not submit a request for a SIMS/R account, we will assume that you no longer need access and your account will be closed on October 31, 2008. The SIMS/R account request form is located below.

SIMS/R Frequently Asked Questions
I am a Mac user and I can no longer access SIMS/R. Help!Mac users previously used the Citrix server to SIMS/R. On September 24, that server was decommissioned, therefore your access was cut off. In order to access SIMS/R from your Mac, you will need to use the Web browser.
How do I print SIMS/R screens?
SIMS/R screens are designed for display on a screen. However if you need to print, from the Action menu select Print.
Can I change my SIMS/R password?
No.
Why is the SIMS/R screen so small?
The SIMS/R screens are designed for 800x600 screen resolution. Most newer computer systems are set to higher resolutions (such as 1024x768), which make the SIMS/R screens look small.
What do I do after the login screen?
First enter your username, password and database. Enter the screen code and then press F8 (the F8 key is usually the top row of keys on your keyboard). The screen code is the name of the screen you use (e.g. S10, S86). Leave Key 1, Key 2, and Key 3 blank.
