What is a supplemental account and what does it give me access to?

Introduction

Departments, centers, programs, and student organizations may request a supplemental account to gain access to various university services, including:

  • Web space
  • Wireless network
  • Library proxy
  • MNPALS
  • Other university-supported systems

Instructions

Student Organizations

  • Requests for student organization accounts must be submitted and managed by a faculty or staff adviser.

Faculty and Staff Responsibilities

  • Faculty and staff are accountable for all activity conducted under the supplemental accounts assigned to them.

Email Access

  • If email functionality is required, request a Shared Mailbox 
  • Email setup is handled separately and will be confirmed via a follow-up email to the requester once completed.

Remote/Off-Campus Access

  • Users must connect via:
    • Direct Access (for Windows users), or
    • VPN (for Mac users)
    to use this application from off campus.

Logging into a Computer with a Supplemental Account

  • For accounts created after August 2019: use the format SCSU-"account name" to log in.
  • For accounts created before August 2019: continue using just the "account name".
