Check with the AIT Service Desk at 630.752.4357(HELP) and they will help to determine your eligibility.
Are you trying to access a service from an off-campus location? Some services, such as Banner, require you to either be on campus or use VPN\EZProxy when off campus. Please review these instructions if you have any questions about VPN. https://answers.wheaton.edu/series/3534031-global-protect
