Steps for Claiming Your Fuller Account

Welcome to Fuller! 

We are excited to walk alongside you during your time at Fuller. The Office of Student Engagement and the Office of Academic Advising are here to help you navigate Fuller resources and support you as you begin your journey.  

Before you can register for classes, you will need to claim your Fuller account.

Academic Advising: When will I meet my Advisor? 
You will be contacted by your academic advisor in the weeks leading up to your first quarter term at Fuller.

Your G-Number (Student identification number)
In order to continue, please take a look at the information below. It is populating based on your admissions record. You will need your G-Number in order to complete certain portions of the training, so please take note of that now.


Activity: 
Be sure to write down your G-Number before proceeding. You'll need to reference it on the following page.



Get to know your Fuller account

Your G-Number (beginning with G10)​ ​is ​included in your acceptance letter from the Office of Admissions, as well as Page 1 of this training. You will need your G-Number in order to setup your Fuller account username and password.
Claim Your Account

The Fuller account is used in everything from registration, to email, to the Universal Scholarship Application, and more.

If you haven't done so already, now would be a good time to claim your Fuller account and set up your account. 

Activity: 
Grab your G-Number and go to login.fuller.edu/fullerid/claim_account, then follow the instructions to read and agree to abide by the Acceptable Use Policy and verify your G-number and date of birth.

If you receive a message that the data does not exist in our records, please contact student@fuller.edu.

You will then be prompted to setup your security questions and new password.

On the following page, we will give you instructions for setting up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).


Setup Two-Factor Authentication

With cybersecurity threats growing in number and sophistication, it’s more important than ever to have strong security measures and enhance login security. As such, Fuller requires an additional layer of security for logging in with your Fuller account called Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).

How does 2FA work?

Two-Factor Authentication works by requiring two verification methods to prove you are who you say you are before you can log in. By requiring multiple types of evidence to confirm your identity, it’s much harder for a bad actor to gain access to your account. Even if your password becomes compromised, an attacker still needs your other factor to log in.

2FA Setup Instructions

Step 1: Using your personal mobile device*, install Google Authenticator from your respective App Store (iOS or Android).

Google Authenticator

Step 2: Returning to Claiming your Fuller account, you should see the screen below after completing the steps from the previous page of this tutorial:

2FA Setup

Step 3: Open Google Authenticator on your mobile device and tap the “+” button on the bottom of the screen

Google Authenticator Add

Step 4: Now tap the “Scan a QR code” button

Google Authenticator Scan

Step 5: The camera will open on your mobile device (you may need to approve Authenticator’s access to your camera). Point your mobile device at the QR code on your computer screen to scan the code

Step 6: Once the QR code is scanned you will see a 6-digit code in Google Authenticator. This is the Authentication Code you must enter to login to your Fuller account when accessing your Fuller email as well as other Fuller systems going forward (note: this code changes every 30 seconds)

Google Authenticator Code

Notice the blue circle to the right of the code. When that circle is completely black a new 6-digit code will be generated. You must enter the code in the login screen, and click ‘Submit’ before the circle turns black. If the circle turns black, and you have not hit ‘Submit’ then the old code is invalid and you will need to enter the new code in order to proceed.

Step 7: Enter the Authentication Code as well as a nickname for your device (e.g. "My laptop") and click “Submit”

2FA Code Name


Congratulations! You have successfully enabled Two-Factor Authentication for your Fuller account. ​If you have any problems or questions, please feel free to reach out to our Tech Support team (techsupport@fuller.edu).


* If you do not have access to the necessary mobile device, please contact techsupport@fuller.edu to install an authenticator application on your computer desktop.


Next Steps

You will be contacted by your academic advisor in the weeks leading up to your first quarter term at Fuller. While you are waiting to connect with your advisor, we encourage you to go through OR101: Orientation to Fuller Theological Seminary, which will help you become more familiar with the seminary, its resources, and how to navigate your upcoming classes so you can begin your studies well-prepared!

(For PhD Clinical and PsyD students, your Academic Advisor will contact you to schedule your group advising appointment. You will not be able to register without first attending the group advising session and meeting with your Academic Advisor.)

Recommended orientation course | OR101: Orientation to Fuller Theological Seminary

OR101: Orientation to Fuller Theological Seminary is designed to teach you how to navigate Fuller systems, provide you with the tools necessary to start well at Fuller, and connect you to other new students and staff/faculty in the Fuller community.
