Change Password

Overview

These instructions are for when you want to change your password. You must know your current password. If you need to reset your password, please use the Forgot Password article. 

Getting Started

• Go to https://sso.mclennan.edu//reset/start/.
  
• Enter your ID number and current password. 
  
• Click the 'Change My Password' Button. Click 'Sign In'.
  
• Only use letters and numbers in your new password (no symbols, no special characters, and also no personal information should be included such as name/initials/date of birth).
  
• Once you have successfully changed your password, close the web browser (all tabs and windows) to complete the password change process. 
  • On Macs - Close the browser and right click on the program's icon on your Menu Bar and click "quit" to close the program. 
    
  • On mobile devices - Close out of the web browser by showing running applications and then swipe away/close the browser app. If you are unsure on how to close running applications on your device, you may also restart your smartphone to complete the process.
  • On Chromebooks- Close your browser (all tabs and windows). 
    
• Once your password has been changed, retry accessing your account.
  
• Update your credentials on any services you may be signed in to with your previous password to help prevent your account from locking due to invalid sign-in attempts (e.g email on a smartphone, wireless, workstations on campus).
