MSU NetID

NetID

A Key to Accessing Electronic Resources

Request a PIN

Students must use their Student ID number and PAN to activate their MSU NetID. If you are a student and do not know your PAN, you can find it in your applicant portal.

Request a PIN for an employee or retiree

A PIN is required to activate a NetID for the first time. You can request your PIN one of three ways:

  1. Call the MSU ID Office at 517-355-4500 during our business hours (Monday-Friday, 8am-4:45pm EST) and someone from our team will give you your PIN over the phone if your paperwork has been fully processed by HR
  2. Visit the MSU ID Office and someone from our team will give you a document with your PIN on it (please call our office first to make sure your paperwork has been fully processed by HR before visiting our office)
  3. Submit an online PIN request using the button to the left titled "Request a PIN for an employee or retiree" (this option typically takes anywhere from 2-5 business days)

If you need to reset your password, please contact the MSU IT Service Desk for assistance.
