UMPI student email? - BigJohn1975 - 05-08-2023
Hello,
I apologize for being an old timer and not the best with technology.
I signed up for Summer 1 classes and was looking forward to spending the whole day working on the 2 classes I've been signed up for.
But I cannot seem to figure out how to access / start the classes.
I can see that English Comp and Business 200 have been assigned to me, but I can't find a way to start the classes.
I contacted Jessica and she said the instructions are in my @Maine.edu email.
I didn't even know I had a @Maine.edu email account.
She told me to read the welcome letter. I did, and saw nothing in it about a student email account.
Can anyone help an old timer out please, thanks!

If you haven't figured it out yet, DM me in the morning and I will try to point you in the right direction.

For your classes: Go to my.umpi.edu, login, and click the YourPace icon under the Launchpad on the left side. It's a dark blue circle. It will lead you to your competencies and coursework.
For accessing the Maine.edu email: You could also login at the same site and click the UMS email icon (it looks like a Gmail colorful "M") to get into it. If it's not activated yet, these are the steps you need to do first:
"1) Go to the webpage: accounts.maine.edu
2) Enter your Student ID Number and the activation key code as prompted. The activation key may include numbers and/or “lower” case letters. You MUST type them in using the correct case.
3) Click: Continue
4) The next screen will ask you to repeat the entry of this information for security purposes.
5) Click: Continue
6) Enter your new password twice
7) Select three security questions and enter answers that will help to identify you if you need to reset your password.
8) You’re done!"
After activating it, I chose to forward all maine.edu emails to my normal Gmail account. This isn't required, but could be more convenient for you. You can follow the instructions here: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/10957?hl=en#zippy=%2Cturn-automatic-forwarding-on-or-off.
Another option is to load your regular Gmail account, click the profile icon in the top-right corner, and click "Add another account" to add your maine.edu account. After doing this, you can quickly switch people both accounts by clicking the icon again and clicking on the other account to open it.
