Student Email

Use Your StarID & Password

Use your Minnesota State StarID and password to set up your account. (StarIDs are a string of two letters, four numbers and two letters, like "ab1234cd.")

If you attended another college or university in the Minnesota State system, you will use the same StarID here. If you're new to the Minnesota State system, your StarID was generated when you first applied for admission.

Check Your Email Frequently

It is a good practice to check your e-mail account once each day during the work week. This is especially important if an instructor uses e-mail to communicate with students. You should expect to receive at least one message each week from the college when classes are in session.
