IT systems and digital services

During your studies, you will use several online systems for course registration, learning materials, communication and study administration. This page helps you understand which tools you need, when you need them, and what to do first.

At Corvinus, digital systems are grouped into four main areas:

  • Academic administration (Neptun, Do It Online!)
  • Identity & access (CUSMAN)
  • Learning tools (Moodle, Teams, Microsoft 365)
  • Student services & apps (MyCorvinus)

 

  • New student? The “Getting started” section helps you get to know the digital systems, activate your accounts and set up your accesses.
  • Already studying here? You can quickly find the systems you use every day or get help if something is not working.

Getting started – As a new student start here

Neptun and CUSMAN are the two key systems at Corvinus that connect you to almost all other digital services. Once you are logged in through these platforms, you will be able to access most of the tools listed below.

After your admission your university systems are not active immediately.

Don’t worry — you will receive a separate notification when your account is ready to use, together with all login instructions. Please wait for this before trying to log in.

What is Neptun?

Neptun is the university’s academic administration system. You will use it throughout your studies to register for courses and exams, manage academic requests, apply for dormitory places, make your exam fee or other payments, or handle other study-related administration.

How to login first?

  • How to log in for the first time?
    • Neptun code & password: Before your first login you will receive a Neptun code and your initial password in a separate notification which is your unique student identifier. You will need it for account activation and all academic administration.
    • Your initial Neptun password (including if you have previously studied at our university) consists of the letters N and e, followed by your date of birth in YYYYMMDD format (without any separators).
      Example: If your date of birth is 20 July 1992 (1992.07.20), your initial password is: Ne19920720.
    • Install an authenticator app: Install an authenticator application on your mobile phone (we strongly recommend Google Authenticator).
    • Watch short video: https://youtu.be/S-A0z2tqTyE
    • More information about the authentication process: https://www.uni-corvinus.hu/post/landing-page/2fa/?lang=en

Once you have these, you are ready to log in!

 

  • How do I log in for the first time?
    1. Open Neptun login page.
    2. Enter your 6-digit Neptun code & initial password.
    3. During your first login, you will be asked to set up two-factor authentication by scanning a QR code with your Google (or your chosen) authenticator app. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the setup.
    4. Enter the 6-digit code generated by the app in Neptun.
    5. Change your password.
    6. Complete the login process!
  • When will I use it?

One of your first tasks will be to:

  • apply for a dormitory place (optional),
  • set your active or passive status for the semester,
  • register for your courses.

Throughout your studies, you will regularly return to Neptun for managing your studies, including course and exam registration, financial matters, and other administrative tasks. All important study-related, financial, and administrative deadlines and tasks are managed through Neptun. Regularly checking the system and completing tasks on time will help you avoid unnecessary complications and ensure smooth progress in your studies.

What is CUSMAN?

CUSMAN (Central User Management System) is where you activate your university account. Once your account has been activated, you can use the same username and password to access multiple Corvinus digital services.

Your official university email address (@stud.uni-corvinus.hu) is also created during this process.

When should I activate my account?

You can activate your account after:

  • receiving the email notification that your account is ready, and
  • completing your first login to Neptun.

Why is this important?

Activating your university account gives you access to essential digital services, including:

  • your university email address,
  • Microsoft Teams,
  • Microsoft 365 applications,
  • campus Wi-Fi,
  • other Corvinus systems that use your university account.

Please note that official notifications and study administration messages are sent via Neptun and in some cases your university email. To comply with data protection and university regulations, important information will not be sent to your personal email address, so it is important to check both Neptun and your university inbox regularly!

How do I activate my account?

  • Open the CUSMAN portal.
  • Sign in using the credentials provided by the university.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to activate your account.
  • Change your password during your first login. Your account will become fully active once the password change has been completed.

After setting up your accounts, these are the main digital tools you will use during your studies.

FAQ

The university uses two separate MFA (multi-factor authentication) systems:

  • Microsoft 365 (Office, Outlook, Teams): Contact the IT Service Center for assistance. Support is available in person or by email at ithelpdesk@uni-corvinus.hu, following data verification.
  • Neptun: The Neptun team handles the setup, modification, or reset of Neptun MFA. More information and support are available here: https://www.uni-corvinus.hu/post/landing-page/2fa/

You Cusman password expires once a year! You must change it regularly to continue accessing university services, including Office applications, Moodle, Wi-Fi, VPN, and logging in to university computers.

Important: This does not affect your Neptun password, which is managed separately.

Tip:

  • Don’t wait until your password expires. Change it as soon as you receive the notification email.
  • Before your in-class exam, check that your CUSMAN password is still valid to avoid login problems.
  • CUSMAN username: For students, this is your Neptun code.
  • CUSMAN password: This is a separate password that you set up on the CUSMAN interface. You use this password to access Moodle, Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams, Office), Wi-Fi, VPN, logging into computer labs, and accessing other university services.
  • Important: Neptun is a separate system, so it has its own password and a separate two-factor authentication (MFA) process. Do not use yourCUSMAN password to log in to Neptun.

Use your CUSMAN username and password.

  • Username: Neptun code (for students)
  • Password: CUSMAN password
