University Communications with Students


Your Official Email Account

Upon admission to Morgan State University, all students, graduate and undergraduate, are assigned an email account. Your email account is a means by which administrators, faculty, and staff communicate official University information to you. For example, your email account will be used to inform you of the following:

Matters concerning your financial aid, such as

  • incomplete or erroneous FAFSA forms
  • refunds due to you
  • notices of awards and deadlines for accepting the awards

Matters concerning your account with the Bursar, such as

  • bills that you may owe to Morgan
  • credit placed on your account

Matters concerning Academic and/or Student Affairs, such as

  • school closings
  • campus emergencies
  • events in the Student Union or Fine Arts Center
  • problems concerning your borrowing privileges at Soper Library
  • various notices from the School of Graduate Studies concerning your academic progress

Additionally, the Office of Residence Life, the offices of your school/college dean and your department chairperson, the Honors Program, the Counseling Center, as well as the Office of the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies will use your University email account to communicate important information to you.

Your email address is your “Username” i.e., <<Email>> @morgan.edu. Typically your email address is formed by using the first two letters of your first name, the first three letters of your last name, plus an Arabic number, thus creating: [first name two letters][last name three letters][00]@morgan.edu. Activate your email account by logging on to http://webmail.morgan.edu. Your initial password is your PIN number (typically your birth date).

For the security of your email communications, you are strongly encouraged to follow the instructions on the webmail website and change your initial password (i.e., PIN number). For assistance in accessing your email account, contact the University’s Help Desk at 443-885-HELP (4357). You may be able to retain your email account even after graduating from Morgan State University.
