Murray State Account Password Requirements

On Monday, August 3, 2020, Murray State introduced several new features to your Murray State myGate and network accounts. These features include:
  -  Simplified password requirements
  -  Your password never expires
  -  Password Self-Service for forgotten passwords
  -  A single password for all Murray State systems (except for RacerMail)

To take advantage of these new features before they become mandatory, we encourage you to visit the Account Services section on the Home tab in myGate and:
  1.  Change your password in the GRAY box. If you have set a new password since August 3 that meets the new requirements, you don’t have to change it again.
  2.  Sign up for Password Self-Service in the GOLD box.

For more information about the new Murray State password, view the “Accounts, Usernames, and Passwords Guide” article.

More information about Password Self-Service and other new features are in the “Murray State Usernames and Passwords - Fall 2020 Changes” article.
