MSU NetIDs are assigned to all current faculty, staff, students and retirees. A NetID is a unique alphanumeric identifier auto-generated from the user's name.
Your NetID is your personal identifier at MSU and serves as your login to many university computing and networking services. Your NetID also determines your MSU email address which is netid@msu.edu (e.g. the NetID msuspartan would have the email address msuspartan@msu.edu).
The information below should help you complete many commonly used actions.
Request a PIN to reset an unknown password for a NetID using the Request a PIN form.
A known NetID password can be changed on the NetID website (https://netid.msu.edu/change-netid-password.html)
Request that a NetID which is no longer needed be disabled using the Disable a NetID form.
Request that an existing NetID be changed on the NetID site (https://netid.msu.edu/manage/change-netid.html)
Persons who are affiliated with the University may have their affiliated department request a login-only FPID NetID. FPID NetIDs do not have email access, but can be setup to login to MSU systems. These NetIDs have a start and end date and therefore do not incur a monthly fee.
To request these services, contact the MSU ID Office.
Persons not affiliated with MSU are not eligible to receive a NetID.
