You can change your PIN again, and as often as you wish, through Aurora

The first time you sign in to Aurora Student you will be prompted to set up a
PIN Security Question and Answer. This question and answer will be used to
recover a forgotten PIN during future sign ins. Be sure to select a question and
answer that is personal and will not be known to others.
Hint: The security questions must be answered letter for letter (if you type
"daisy" as your answer, the response "daisies" will be incorrect.

Once your Registration Time starts, you’ll continue to have access to the
registration system for the remainder of the registration period. The system is
open 24 hours a day, 7 days per week.
Most returning students will register on or after July 24. Determine your

‘Registration’, and then ‘Registration Time and Status’.
On this page you can also check to see if there are any holds that may prevent
registration, that your program is listed correctly, and that your student status
permits registration. If your program is listed incorrectly, or if your student
status does not permit registration, please contact your faculty or school general
office.
