Line 82:

For security purposes, the University will require your UserID number and Limited API Key.

This key allows us to see basic information about your characters, such as the number of skillpoints for each of them, what skills you have and your wallet balance. API codes do not give us any sort of control over ~~you~~ accounts and you are perfectly safe. Once received, your API Key is then entered into an internally developed program by the PO, which provides basic details about you and your alts.

Use of API Keys is common practice for larger groups as corporate espionage is commonplace in New Eden. In other corporations, details will typically be kept on file and access and membership will be revoked if the key is changed. However, in the case of Eve University, you are free to create a new key at any time after you have been accepted, and our POs do not keep records of your API code.

Line 90:

If you have more than one Eve account, you need to provide the API keys for all of your accounts.

'''Note''': When you convert or activate a trial account to a paid subscription, access to your API key will put on a 3-day lockout by CCP. If you are unable to access or provide the University with your User ID and limited API key, we will not be able to complete the application until you are able do so, resulting in unnecessary delays. We strongly recommend that you retrieve your User ID and limited API key '''before''' you convert from a trial a paid subscription.
