The University uses a variety of avenues to communicate with students. Please watch this video overview on how to setup your SSO, password, and UMSL email account.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA), also known as two-step or two-factor authentication, adds a second layer of protection to your University account in addition to your username and password. This extra layer prevents anyone but you from logging in to your account, even if they know your password. A common example would be a verification code sent via text to your cell phone when you try to log on, which you then have to enter before access is granted. Multi-factor authentication requires a short registration process to connect your personal information to your account.
