Missouri State Online Setup - PIN Number and Computer Account Setup

Your Missouri State University PIN number and computer account are essential for you to access information on the Missouri State University computer system necessary to complete your online degree. (You will not need your PIN number and computer account information for Blackboard.) Please follow the steps below to setup your PIN number and computer account. Write down your PIN number and the question and answer, in addition to your user ID and password so you will not forget them. Keep this information in a secure place.

Important: The links below will take you off of the Missouri State Online site. When you click on a link, a new widow will open. After you finish each step, close the window and return to this page.

If you already have both your PIN number and computer account you do not need to go through these steps.

1. Set up your PIN Number

Your PIN number is useful to access information such as your grades at the end of the semester. Go to the MY PIN page to establish your PIN number. Click on "Pick a PIN" if you are a new student and have not had an Missouri State University PIN number.

If you have forgotten your PIN number, you can obtain it by going to Change My PIN page. If you do not know what your PIN number is, contact the ZIP Card Office at (417) 836-8409.

2. Create Your Blackboard Account

Email Missouri State Online Help Desk or call (417) 836-6111 (toll free 1-888-767-8444) if you have any questions or problems with the setup procedure.
