CWID
CWID is the campus wide identification number that replaced Social Security Numbers* for many campus transactions involving password protected information records and requests from specific departments. All students, faculty, and staff are assigned a CWID.
Users needing to locate their CWID can do so by logging into MyCharleston and looking in the Cougar Card Mini Statement channel on the My Accounts tab.
* The College of Charleston instituted the use of a campus-wide identification system (CWID) in place of the social security number in 2005.
