## Who is eligible for an NYU HPC account ?

NYU HPC clusters and related resources are available to full-time NYU faculty and to all NYU staff and students with sponsorship from a full-time NYU faculty.




## Getting a new account on the NYU HPC clusters

To request an NYU HPC account please log in to [NYU Identity Management service][nyu ims link] and follow the link to "Request HPC account" by clicking on the hamburger icon on the top left of the page and selecting "Manage Access" . We have a walkthrough of how to [request an account through IIQ](03_walkthrough_request_hpc_account.mdx). If you are a student, alumni or an external collaborator you will need an NYU faculty sponsor.
