StarID

The StarID is a username that replaces many login IDs with one ID and one password. Once you activate it, you can use your StarID and password anywhere that accepts StarID. Instead of a separate login at each college or university, you can use the same StarID across Minnesota State. Change your password in one place —  — and it will change everywhere.

The StarID is two letters, four numbers, and two letters, e.g. “ab1234cd”.

Students will be using their StarID username and password to log into 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Computers, E-Services, D2L Brightspace, Office365 (includes Student E-mail), Kaltura Mediaspace, Zoom, and Infobase Learning Cloud account.
