Cal Poly Account
A Cal Poly account is issued to every student, staff, faculty, and member of the Cal Poly community. It's the key to accessing university resources, like the My Cal Poly Portal, Email & Calendar, and WiFi, among others. Your Cal Poly username is the same as your email address and your password must meet complex password requirements. In order to keep your account secure, you are required to use multi-factor authentication (MFA) to verify your identity when you log in and change your password annually.
