Need help getting started?
Through the Husky Portal, you’ll gain access to your Email, Brightspace, and Self-Service accounts—all with a single sign-on, meaning access to all three services with one password, whether you login via the portal or directly to each service.
The video walks you through setting up your Husky Portal, authenticator method for the first time and downloading Microsoft Office 365, which is available for all enrolled students.
Prefer written directions instead? Follow these step-by-step instructions.
1. Open a browser and type www.monroeccc.edu and click on HUSKY PORTAL at the top of the page.
2. Microsoft Outlook will open. Type in your whole college email, all lowercase.
3. Enter your password: Your initial password is: Lowercase first initial of your first name, lowercase first initial of your last name, your full year of birth, and your 7-digit student ID number (including leading zeros). E.g.: Name (Student Person), DOB (Jan. 1, 1999), ID# (0123456) will be sp19990123456 as your initial password. If you need assistance with your password, please call the IT Help Desk at 734-384-4234
4. Microsoft Authenticator will open. If you have already set this up, it will open the Husky Portal. If not, click on “I want to set up a different method” at the very bottom.
5. Click on the drop down arrow and choose “Phone.”
6. In the “Keep your account secure” window, enter your cell phone number and select “Text me a code.”
7. Enter the code. Once you are verified, click “Next” and you will enter the Husky Portal and be able to access your email, Brightspace and Self-Service.
Microsoft Office 365
All MCCC students have the ability to download Microsoft Office 365 for free as a MCCC student. Once your MCCC email is established go to https://office.com. Students should sign in using their full MCCC email address and password. Once students are signed in, go to the top right hand corner and click "install office", students will have this for free as long as they are a MCCC student.
Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) and Multi-Factor Authentication
Available for all students. Self-Service Password Reset will allow you to reset or change your password on your own, similar to how you would reset your password for banking or other services you may use. Multi-Factor Authentication will be required for all logins if you are not physically on campus.
Upon first login, you will be required to set up at least one authentication method.
NOTE: Once you have at least one authentication method set up on your account, the requirement for both SSPR and MFA will be satisfied.
