Welcome to Evergreen! Your temporary My Evergreen username is generated 24 hours after your admission. Learn how to activate your account and access my.evergreen.edu.

Step 1: Set up a secure password

You will receive an account activation notification via email within 24 hours after you receive your acceptance email. This will be sent to your personal email you provided when you applied to Evergreen. If you can't find the activation email, try searching your spam/junk folders for "@evergreen.edu." If you cannot find the email, please submit a support request at help.evergreen.edu.

2. Select "Student"
3. Enter your temporary username from the activation email
4. Enter the captcha
