Welcome Graduate Students!

Congratulations on being accepted to Clarke University! Below is some important information you will need to know to prepare for your first term as a Clarke University graduate student.

STEP 1: SET UP YOUR CLARKE ACCOUNTS

Note: If you already have a Clarke account set up, you can disregard the instructions below for initial log-in.

To login to your Clarke account:

  1. Go to http://my.clarke.edu
  2. Enter your Username firstname_lastname@clarke.edu all in lower case. Initially, your account uses your legal name. You can request to change your preferred name at the Registrar’s office.
  3. Enter your Default Password. Your default password is the word Password (with a capital P) and the month and day of your birth in 4-digit format: PasswordMMDD
  4. Reset your default password (Initial Login Only): After entering the default password, you will be required to change your password. The password must contain 12 characters: 1 uppercase letter, 1 lowercase letter, 1 number, and 1 special character (!@#$%^&*). Your password cannot contain your name or anything easily guessable.
  5. Account Verification (Initial Login Only): Follow the prompts for initial account verification. You will set up Multifactor Authentication. We recommend using the Microsoft Authenticator App for the most convenient experience. Microsoft Authenticator is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.

STEP 2: ACCESS/UNDERSTAND YOUR CLARKE ACCOUNTS

View instructions here for logging in to your Clarke email,  CU Hub, or Moodle accounts.

  • CU hub. CU hub is where you will view your schedule, register for classes, access your grades, and much more.
  • Moodle. Moodle is the online learning system you will use for your classes.
  • Clarke Email. Please be sure to check your Clarke email frequently, as most communication will be done via Clarke email. We recommend that you set up your Clarke email on your phone (iPhone|Android) OR set up your Clarke email to be forwarded to your personal or work email account if you do not want to have to log in to your Clarke email account regularly.

Please complete the checklist on the Admitted Student Guide no later than one week before classes start.

STEP 4: REVIEW THE GRADUATE STUDIES PORTAL
