IT Help Tickets: How to Search for Your Ticket Requests to Check on Status

If you submit tickets using the IT Help ticketing system, you may be interested in knowing the ongoing status of your tickets where you are listed as the Requestor.  Most often, you may be listed as the requestor of a ticket if you a) submitted the ticket yourself, or b) if someone opened a ticket on your behalf (i.e., by your college/department IT Coordinator) and listed you as the requestor of the service or issue.

Please note: You will be required to log in to the IT Help system using your usual BeachID and password credentials to access your tickets.
