New York Times account activation

Albany High School Library, Fall 2022


Albany High students & staff can set up a one-year subscription with the New York Times, using your school email addresses with the following domain @ausdk12.org.

To activate your Pass, please follow these steps:


  1. Visit nytimes.com/passes. Create a free NYTimes.com account using your school email address with the approved domain. If you already have an NYTimes.com account associated with your email address, log in with those credentials.

  1. Check your email inbox for our confirmation message. Click on the link in your confirmation message to validate your email address and claim your Pass. If the confirmation email didn’t arrive, check your spam folder. If it isn’t there, send an email to edu@nytimes.com from your school email address to request confirmation.

You have successfully claimed a Pass when you see the Start Your Access screen. Now you can enjoy access to NYTimes.com, INYT.com, and NYT mobile apps from any location, on or off campus, just by logging into your NYTimes.com account. You may download NYTimes mobile apps at nytimes.com/mobile.

HINT: You must confirm your account -- don’t forget to check your email address. Then you set up a password and log in. Do this on a computer, and then you can access the mobile apps.


If you have any questions, please email Ms. Megan mhickey@ausdk12.org
