Beginning On Campus

Setting up a successful foundation at Mason includes activating your accounts.

 

Patriot Pass and Mason Live

Your first step is to set up your Patriot Pass, as this is how you set up your Mason NetID (username) and password. Setting this up allows you to access your Mason Live e-mail account. If you do not know your G number, please contact your assigned Success Coach immediately. As for your “claim code,” please try your date of birth (MMDDYY). If this does not work, please contact your Success Coach.

 

Once you have set up your Patriot Pass (i.e. your NetID and password), you will complete the following steps to set up your MasonLive account:

 

To activate your MasonLive account:

 

  1. Go to password.gmu.edu
  2. Scroll down to Option 5 (To activate/reset your MasonLive Microsoft Account) and click on the link.
  3. On the Central Authentication Service page, log in using your Mason NetID and Patriot Pass Password.
  4. Type in a new MasonLive Microsoft Password using the guidelines provided.
    *Please note: your MasonLive Microsoft Password and your Patriot Pass password CANNOT be the same
  5. Click the Save Password button. You have created a MasonLive Microsoft Password
  6. To log in to your account, go to masonlive.egmu.edu and click “Login here” with your MasonLive account.
  7. You’ll log in with..
    • NetID@masonlive.gmu.edu
    • MASON LIVE Microsoft Password (this is the password you just created)
  8. You will be asked to select your language and time zone.
  9. All done! You are now inside your MASON LIVE inbox.
    *Please note: this only changes your MASON LIVE Microsoft Password. Your Patriot Pass password is not impacted.

Mason ID Card

As for your Mason non-degree ID card, you will need to visit the Mason ID Card Office on the Fairfax campus to get your picture taken and receive your ID same day. Please bring a form of picture ID (i. e. a current driver’s license, military ID, visa, passport) and your G number with you to the Mason ID Card Office in order to obtain your Mason ID.
