  • Ultimately you will receive an email from IT Help Desk forwarded through your departmental office with confirmation of ESS account creation and instructions on how to use MyAccount@MU to set-up your password maintenance for myVILLE, Outlook email, D2L, MU Video and ESS.

Who do I call if I have questions about my accounts and passwords?

  • Please contact the IT Help Desk at (717)871-7777 for password assistance and to confirm the status of any of your accounts.
  • The Help Desk may direct you to either HR or your departmental office depending upon the current stage in the account creation process.

Where do I go to log in?

  • "Faculty and Staff" > "Logins" - this is the Logins and Services Directory OR www.millersville.edu/logins/ directly
