Student Services
Computer User accounts
All students (day or evening) who are enrolled in at least ONE course are automatically given a computer user account. This account is yours for as long as you are enrolled at Merrimack College. This account gives you access to the college’s network, including email, Blackboard and the myMACK system.
Internet Access in the Dorms
All residence hall rooms have wired network jacks. Wireless access is available in campus buildings and most outdoor areas. Students should use the network (SSID) named MCStudent. Help for connecting and the password is available at the Help Desk, on myMack>Technology>Information Technology>Handouts. When possible, students should use a wired connection for enhanced speed and security.
