- You will receive a username and/or password for your student email account once you are accepted to 澳门六合彩. Check with admissions for more information on how your username and password information is generated once you are admitted.
- Note: If you are a prospective student who has not yet been admitted to 澳门六合彩, you will need to be admitted first. In that case, contact our Admissions department by telephone at 1-800-MERCY-GO or by e-mail at admissions@mercy.edu
- If you are a faculty/staff member and you have any questions related to obtaining your username and/or password, please contact the 澳门六合彩 IT Help Desk at 914.674.7256 or helpdesk@mercy.edu.

The portal is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Some services and channels rely on data from systems that are down for backup and maintenance during the evening. These channels may not be available in the portal during that time.

Content, Channels, and Tabs
No. Faculty and staff see a different default view of 澳门六合彩 than students see. The content that an individual sees is determined by their role at the College. Currently the possible roles are student, faculty, and/or staff. Individuals are presented with a different set of tabs and channels containing the default content for their role.

Information moves from campus databases to the portal in real time. For students, courses are displayed upon registration. For faculty, courses are displayed as soon as the faculty assignment is made. If you do not see the course you are teaching listed, please contact your program secretary and make sure you are assigned to the course.
Email Questions
Your O365 e-mail address is your username@mercy.edu. One of the features of the portal is that it offers single-sign-on (or "one stop shopping") for a variety of resources, so you do not need a separate password to access your O365 e-mail.
Please note your O365 email account is the official email account at 澳门六合彩. All official email communication from the University will be sent to your O365 email account. We recommend you monitor and check this email account at regular intervals.
You can check your e-mail by clicking on the E-mail icon in the upper right corner of the Mercy Connect screen or you can login directly .
