Setting Up Your Merrimack Account for the first time

  1. Navigate to myaccount.microsoft.com and enter your Merrimack College email on the appropriate line. Click the "next" button.

2. A Merrimack College branded login page will appear. You should enter the default password that was provided to you and then click the "Sign in" button.

3. After you click the "Sign in" button you will see a pop up that reads "More information required". Click the "Next" button.

4. You can opt to set up one password recovery method but we strongly recommend setting up both methods. Click the text "Set them up now" to add your phone number and to create your security questions. Once you have finished entering those, click the "finish" button.

5. You now need to change your password. Click "Change password" in the Password tile to create a new password. If you need guidance on creating a complex password please check out our: Best Practices for Passwords page.

You are all done! You will not have to do this registration process again. Please contact IT with questions or concerns at askit@merrimack.edu.
