Preview the New My Missouri State

by

Information Services is pleased to announce that the brand new My Missouri State is ready for preview!  

As the main hub for accessing university resources, the My Missouri State portal is long overdue for an upgrade. Information Services has been hard at work with the support of many of our functional areas to implement a new software that will totally transform My Missouri State into an easy-to-use, modern site that you can customize to fit your preferences. Read more about the New My Missouri State and learn how to customize your dashboard.

A link to the new My Missouri State has been added to the Quick Links menu in the current portal on the Home tab.

Timeline for Releasing the New Site

November 1, 2022: Most resources are available, and you can begin testing it out and providing feedback. Links will allow you to toggle between old and new systems.
Spring Break, March 11-19, 2023:  https://my.MissouriState.edu will point to the new My Missouri State. The legacy system will still be available and links will allow you to toggle between the new and old systems.
End of Spring 2023 Semester: The legacy My Missouri State system will be turned off, and everyone will be using the new system.

Improved Security

With this new platform, it became possible to increase the security of My Missouri State, so you will be prompted to sign in and verify your identity with your Missouri State Office 365 Login and password instead of using your BearPass Login. If you aren’t sure what your Office 365 Login is, you can view it on your Account Information page.  

Please take the opportunity to explore and test the new site. We would love to hear any constructive feedback you might have: My Missouri State Feedback Form. 

We’re excited about the possibilities the new My Missouri State will provide – including a new and improved mobile app! – so we can’t wait to hear from you.
