Check It Off. Get It Done.
MackTasks is your customized list of to-do items that you need to complete before you start classes.
Your MackTasks Checklist lives in your admission portal and will keep you on track for the first day of classes! The list you see in your portal is personalized just for you, so what you see might be different from a friend’s list. Due dates vary depending on the task with dates ranging between October and January for students starting in spring 2025.
After you deposit, watch your email for your Merrimack username and initial password. If you received this information prior to a leave of absence or deferral and cannot log into myMack, contact the IT Help Desk ([email protected], 978-837-3500) for assistance.
