Check Your Student Portal Email and PeopleSoft Student Center

We sent a message to e-mail address you listed in your application telling you how to access your campus e-mail account and student portal. Look for an email with the subject line "Your ID, Username, and passwords for Cal Maritime portal and e-mail." That email tells you your Cal Maritime email address, username, and how to set up your password. If you cannot find that email, your spam filter may be blocking it. If that's the case, give us a call or send an email to admission@csum.edu, and we can resend your credentials.

 

Add your Campus E-mail to your smartphone

The easiest way to access your campus e-mail is to add it as an e-mail account on your smartphone (iPhone or Android). To view instructions for adding your campus e-mail to your smartphone, refer to the first e-mail we sent to your Cal Maritime account with the subject line, "Welcome to your new Cal Maritime email account."
