My PIN was reset, but every time I enter a new PIN I receive the message 鈥淧IN has expired鈥�
This means that the new PIN you tried to create did not conform with the PIN rules. Your Minerva PIN is a combination of 6-to-18 numbers and letters of your choosing. Please try again, ensuring you follow the rules exactly.
