Your username is your Net ID. You can locate your Net ID by logging into Banner Web, clicking on "Personal Information", and clicking on "View IDs". Your password should be the same as your student email password and network login password. If you are having trouble logging in it would be a good idea to verify that you have the correct username and reset the password, if necessary.
To do this, visit http://password.gfcmsu.edu and enter your last name, Banner ID, Banner pin, and click the Sign In button. Once logged in, you should see one or two checkboxes. Leave all boxes checked and enter your new password. This password must be 8-20 characters, include both letters and numbers, include a special character such as ! or ?, and must not contain your name or username.

NEW August 2018 - GFC MSU's password reset tool, sometimes referred to as My Profile, has been replaced with a new Self Service Password 
Portal. A screenshot displaying the new Self Service Password Portal This is the new location where GFC MSU faculty, staff and students will set/change their NetID password.
All GFC MSU faculty, staff, and students* must set up a new user profile and will not be able to change or set their NetID password until they do.
*It doesn't matter if you've been at GFC MSU for years or are brand spanking new, a new user profile must be set up.
What's different from the old password reset tool?
- Everyone must set up a new user profile the first time they use the tool.
- New user setup requires configuration of challenge questions and also the choice to set up email and/or text authentication for future use.
- New user profiles can be set up (and updated at any time) without having to change your NetID.
What's the same?
- Passwords expire 180 days from the date they are set/reset.
- Passwords can be changed at anytime, waiting for expiration is not required.
