Your “My Maritime” username and password will be your credential to access most of the services that Massachusetts Maritime Academy offers.   “My Maritime” is a service provided by Microsoft that allows you to manage your password and security settings.  It is a self service password portal and requires additional information to enroll and secure your account.  Please follow the instructions below to enroll or manage your account.


Go to My Maritime, you will see the Microsoft Sign in screen.     



                                                                                              ..                                                 

Enter your username and password. Your username is your Massachusetts Maritime Academy email address and if you are a student this will be first.lastname@maritime.edu. (eg John Doe as a student is john.doe@maritime.edu). If you are a faculty or staff member, this will be firstinitial+lastname@maritime.edu. (eg John Doe as a staff member would be jdoe@maritime.edu). Click next, you will see the My Maritime “Enter password” screen.  


                                                                                                                                       

If this is the first time logging in as a new user (i.e. incoming freshman), enter your default password, which will be Gobucs + underscore + your seven digit ID number. For example, if your student ID is 1234567 then your password will be Gobucs_1234567. Upon first login, you will prompted to change your password. This new password will need: 


  • consist of at least 8 characters
  • have at least 3 of the following: lowercase letters, uppercase letters, digits, or special characters (~!@#$%^&**(){}?)
  • it cannot contain your first or last name


Enter your password and click the “Sign in” button.  If you have never logged into "My Maritime" (new or current user), you will need to secure your account to be able reset your password, follow the step below.  If you have already secured your account, you will be logged in to your account page (screenshot below).


                                                                                               

To secure your account, you will need to set up at least two of the four options shown above:

  • Office Phone
  • Authentication Phone (Mobile)
  • Authentication Email

From there you can update security settings and change your password.
