Account Life-cycle
Creation & first access
Simmons students will receive an account creation email with the information they need to access their MHC account 2 weeks before the first day of class.
Also an MHC Alum? In that case, there won't be another MHC Account created for you and you won't get an account creation email. Your existing MHC Account will be provided Simmons student access as outlined on this page. If needed, review our
MHC Account password reset instructions.
Deactivation
Account access ends when the semester is over unless the student is already enrolled in another Simmons course at MHC for the following summer.
Access restored if enrolled in additional courses
Account access is also restored in any future terms where the student is enrolled in a Simmons course at MHC, though the initial account creation email is not resent.
If needed, review our MHC Account password reset instructions.
