What should I do now?

To activate your account, use your NetID and password to login at illinois.qualtrics.com.

Begin to set up any new Qualtrics surveys at illinois.qualtrics.com No existing surveys, workflows, or other assets will exist automatically in the new account; they must be intentionally uploaded. Existing Qualtrics data must be either downloaded, migrated, and/or copied from your account before December 2023. Failure to do so will render old data inaccessible.  

How do I migrate?
