Each @ndus.edu account also has campus email alias address(s). Students from Minot State University will receive an @minotstateu.edu address in addition to the @ndus.edu. Messages sent to either address will be delivered to the @ndus.edu address. If you are a student at multiple campuses, you may receive additional aliases.
Student email accounts in the NDUS system are kept for approximately 18 months after your last class.
July 1, 2018 the @my.minotstateu.edu system was shut down due to consolidation with the North Dakota University System. It is no longer possible to access to new or old messages from that account. For more information about the consolidation please see Student Email Consolidation Announcement.
If you have had a name change and would like your email address to reflect that change, the first step is to change your name with the Registrar's Office. Once your name is changed in Campus Connection you may request that your NDUS.Identifier be changed by contacting the MSU Help Desk. Please note that the identifier change not only impacts your email address but also your Campus Connection, Blackboard, network authentication, and any service that uses your NDUS Identifier. If you are currently using Blackboard for an online or blended class you will need to wait until a semester break to request the username change as a new account will be created without any completed work.

While you may forward your MSU email to another email account, having email lost because of forwarding does not absolve you from the responsibilities associated with communication sent to your official email address.
