IMPORTANT NOTICE: Register NOW for Account Recovery and Multifactor Authentication post content graphic

** IMPORTANT NOTICE: Due to the recent inclement weather situation, loss of electricity and internet access across the U.S., we are postponing the roll-out of the Account Recovery (SSPR) to mid-March. However, if you are able to and have not already done so, please register as soon as you see this message. **

In March 2021, UTRGV’s MyAccount Self-Service webpage will be upgraded to Microsoft’s Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR), which is a new service that offers multiple methods to recover account access.

On September 1, 2021, Multifactor Authentication (MFA) services will provide another layer of security for student data.

 

Why is it important?

Completing the registration process now will help ensure that you are able to use these features and that you do not lose access to your account.

What do I need to do? 

Register by following this demonstration video and using the quick start guide below: 

  1. Log in at my.UTRGV.edu. 
  2. Click on the Office 365 icon under Applications.
  3. You will be prompted with a Microsoft message stating More information required. Click Next. 
  4. Follow these step-by-step instructions or view the demonstration video.

If you experience any difficulties, please reach out to us at the IT Service Desk for guidance.

We are here to help!
