How to activate your starID without a Social Security Number
StarIDs use a consistent, non-name-based format to ensure privacy, prevent duplication, and support system-wide use. This unique ID remains the same throughout your time with Minnesota State institutions.
Your StarID is a system-wide login used to access essential services at St. Cloud State University, including email, Wi-Fi, campus computers, and online courses. Activation is required for all students, faculty, and staff.
