What Is a NetID PIN?

All MSU faculty and staff are auto-assigned an MSU NetID and PIN once their paperwork has been completed by MSU Human Resources.

Other MSU Affiliated persons will receive a NetID and 4-digit PIN based on confirmation of MSU affiliation and/or sponsorship by an MSU department.

In either case, the 4-digit PIN is needed for activating a NetID for the first-time.

Information for Students

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