We have identified a system issue with some new CFNC accounts (whether created as a single, student-created account or as part of a counselor’s bulk account creation). We are working on a fix. In the meantime, any student experiencing this issue just needs to logout of CFNC.org and then login again. That will enable the student to work with his/her profile going forward. We apologize for any inconvenience.
