To enhance system security and improve the user experience, Turnitin has updated its user login interface and student account registration process. The key changes are summarized below:

  • Effective immediately, all users (administrators, instructors, and students) should access Turnitin through home.turnitin.com.
  • The student account creation and course enrollment processes have been updated.
  • To allow students to join an existing course, instructors must enable"Allow students to self-enroll in this course" in the course settings and generate a new Course Enrollment Key for student use.
  • Course Enrollment Keys are valid for 14 days. If a new key is generated, the previous key will immediately become invalid; however, this will not affect students who have already enrolled in the course.
  • Accounts with Library Administrator privileges are required to complete One-Time Password (OTP) verification when signing in. The login process and user experience for instructor and student accounts remain unchanged.
