You might want to try FlexBox . In my opinion, it's the single best thing that ever happened to CSS.
See my CodePen for an example using your HTML.
These 3 lines of CSS are the most important:
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
Edit : My CodePen might not look perfectly centered, but that's because height: 100vh doesn't really work in CodePen. But it'll work outside of CodePen.
Edit 2 : Updated codepen

Maybe you could try, in css:
text-align:center;
margin-left:(half of the Pixels of the screen)
margin-top:(half of the Pixels of the screen)

Couldn't you simply apply the background and border to the .authform class or are you going for a different look?
.authform {
padding: 15% 20px 20px;
width: 50%;
margin: auto;
background-color: #2ecc71;
border-radius: 25px;
border: 2px solid #2ecc71;
}

You are using bootstrap for your inputs. Bootstrap's columns must be 12 in every row. In your case you have to add one div after every input.
<label class="col-md-4 control-label" for="username"></label>
<div class="col-md-4">
<center><input id="username" name="username" placeholder="Username" class="form-control input-md a-in" required="" type="text"></center>
</div>
<div class="col-md-4"></div>
or
<label class="col-md-3 control-label" for="username"></label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<center><input id="username" name="username" placeholder="Username" class="form-control input-md a-in" required="" type="text"></center>
</div>
<div class="col-md-3"></div>
