Creating an Account
Creating an Account
Learn, step-by-step, how to register on the eUAS Borrower Portal and then activate your new account. Plus, understand what you’re agreeing to when you sign the TCPA.
Registration
Getting Started
- You can begin the enrollment process from the eUAS Borrower Portal.
- At the eUAS login screen, select Create An Account.
Choose a Registration Method
Multiple registration methods are available:
- Social Security Number
- Individual Taxpayer Identification Number
- Lender Assigned Identifier
- Document Information
Registering by Social Security Number is the recommended option. If the borrower or cosigner doesn’t have an SSN, then you can use one of the other three options.
Registering by SSN
A Social Security Number (SSN) is a nine digit number issued by the Social Security Associations. You can find your SSN on your Social Security Card. If you don’t have your Social Security Card, you may be able to find your SSN on other paperwork including: tax documents (W-2 or 1099), company payroll documents, military identification card, medical insurance card, etc.
Whether you are the cosigner or the borrower, enter your own information. If you are neither, enter the borrower’s information and your information will be obtained later.
The SSN method requires:
- Your 9-Digit Social Security Number
- Date of Birth
- Postal Code
Registering by ITIN
An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is a nine-digit number issued by the Internal Revenue Service. It is similar to a Social Security Number (SSN), but applies to individuals who do not have and cannot obtain a SSN.
Whether you are the cosigner or the borrower, enter your own information. If you are neither, enter the borrower’s information and your information will be obtained later.
The ITIN method requires:
- Your 9-Digit Individual Taxpayer Identification Number
- Date of Birth
- Postal Code
Registering by Lender Assigned ID
Some lenders assign their own identifiers for borrowers and cosigners. For example, if the lender is a university, this could be a Student ID. If such an identifier was provided during the loan orientation process, you may be able to use it to register.
Whether you are the cosigner or the borrower, enter your own information. If you are neither, enter the borrower’s information and your information will be obtained later.
The Lender Assigned ID method requires:
- Name of the lending institution
- Identifier
- Date of Birth
- Postal Code
Registering by Document
This method can only be used if you have access to a document delivered to you by the system, such as a statement or past due notice. It must have a field labeled Document ID on it, which is a 12-digit number usually found in the top or bottom right hand corner. If this field is not on the document, you cannot use this method to register.
Whether you are the cosigner or the borrower, enter your own information. If you are neither, enter the borrower’s information and your information will be obtained later.
The Document method requires:
- The document ID of a statement or past due notice
- Date of Birth
- Postal Code
Registration Process
1. Enter your information into the required fields.
2. Complete the CAPTCHA verification step and click Next.

Borrowers and cosigners initiate registration independently. A payer must be authorized by the borrower before registration is allowed. A person is allowed one active online registration. If they attempt to create a second registration, an error message is displayed:
If you already have an account, but do not remember your password and/or your screen ID, there is an account recovery option under the error message.

Activate / Verify Your Account
Check Your Email for the Activation Link
To ensure the email address provided during enrollment is valid and delivery from UAS is not flagged as spam, the system sends an activation email. The email contains an activation link and, alternatively, a security key that can be entered manually.
Click the activation link in the email or enter the security key and then click Activate.
Verification
Upon enrollment and every 90 days thereafter, UAS prompts for address, phone and email verification. Updates immediately apply to the Loan Manager site.
If there are errors or you want to change the information for Address, Phone Number, or Email Address, just click on the designated button.
Note: if there is an error in the name of the borrower, you can email cuscoperations@studentchoice.org.
Take a moment to make sure all of the information is correct and then click Verify.
