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).
  • You will see your McLennan Community College email shown in green letters if the change was successful. 
  • Once your password has been reset, 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). If you use a password manager to store your passwords, please update all MCC services (e.g. Brightspace, email, MyMCC) to the new MCC password. 
  • More information about what services to update with your new password to avoid your account being locked can be found at Preventing Account Lockouts After Password Reset.
