\n\nChange Your Password<\/strong> – Your MUNet username and password are important because these are how you will log in to everything Marshall related. In order to keep this information private and just for you, we ask each student to change their password to something no one else knows. Visit www.marshall.edu\/id<\/a> to activate your account if you haven’t already and change your password TODAY!\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

\n\nEnroll in MFA –<\/strong> Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), also known as two-step authentication, is an added layer of security that MUIT has implemented to keep all of our users’ data safe. By enrolling in MFA, you are securing yourself and your personal information from being compromised. To learn more, please visit our MFA website<\/a>.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

\n\nDownload Microsoft Teams and other Available Software –<\/strong> We highly recommend Downloading Microsoft Teams prior to Orientation<\/strong> (click to download)<\/a>. Once you’re a student at Marshall, you get access to Microsoft Office 365 and other software. This includes Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Teams, 1T of free storage with OneDrive<\/a>, and so much more. To learn more about these and how to download, visit the Available Software<\/a> page.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n
