Toronto Metropolitan University Student Portal, Email and OneCard

Your online identity is important! This username and password is used to access your Toronto Metropolitan University email, register for courses and log into computers on campus. When you accessed your MyServiceHub account to review your Communications section, you also went through the process of activating your online identity. If you have not done this step, activate your Toronto Metropolitan University Online Identity right now.

Although you can activate your online identity as soon as you receive your letter of acknowledgment, you will have limited access to MyServiceHub and other online systems until August 1.

After August 1, you will be prompted to create your Toronto Metropolitan University email address when you log into my.torontomu.ca. It is important that you do this as soon as possible, as all official university communications will be sent there. Remember to check it frequently!
