Turnitin Access Simplified for Instructors
Beginning July 1, 2014, individuals with faculty status or those teaching a course in the Summer 2014 semester will be able to automatically enroll in Turnitin by clicking the Log In button at the Penn State Turnitin home page and entering their Penn State Access Account user id and password. Instructors will no longer need to request access from the ITS Help Desk.
Other individuals requiring instructor level access for Penn State academic business (excluding scanning of one’s own documents) can request access by contacting turnitin@psu.edu.
Note: To facilitate the migration, creation of new instructor accounts will be suspended from 8 AM to 1 PM on July 1, 2014.
Student Access
Currently and after July 1, 2014, individuals requiring student level access can also log in to with their Penn State Access Account user id and password, but will need a course id and password from their instructor to gain access to that course. Students must use their official Penn State e-mail address and password within Turnitin or recording of grades may be affected. See http://turnitin.psu.edu/help/studentstart/ for details.
