Microsoft Entra Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) Registration Step-by-Step
Future students will be prompted to register a personal email address for Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) when logging into their student account. While there is the option to skip setup, we strongly recommend completing the process so you do not continue receiving the prompt each time you log in.
Step 1: After logging in with your Madison College email address and password, you will be prompted for more information to keep your account secure. Choose Next.
Step 2: Enter a valid personal email address and choose Next.
Step 3: A code will be sent to the email address you entered. Enter the code and select Next.
Step 4: A success message will appear. Choose Done and you will be brought to the application you were attempting to access.
After registering a personal email address, you should not be prompted to register an email address again. You will be asked for an additional verification method after you become an enrolled student or are accepted into a program. At that point, you will be prompted to set up a method for multi-factor authentication (MFA).
