Issue/Question
- Are there standard locations for student content on the MyMassasoit portal?
- I'm not a student, but need to direct students to their portal content, what do they see?
- What is the Student Profile and where does a student find it?
Resolution
The MyMassasoit portal Home Page (where people "land" when they sign in) is configurable by each person. Individual users may "pin" or "unpin" content from this page, and drag "cards" left, right, up, and down (or set them using options on their phones). Therefore, everyone's Home Page is unique to them. Visibility also depends on what roles a person has at Massasoit. While some cards are visible to ALL portal users, others are targeted to only Students, Faculty, or Employees. Announcements may also be listed beneath the campus image and are visible by role.
ALL cards visible to a user can be seen on the Discover page and can be sorted alphabetically, by age, or saved-pinned first. Access the Discover page from the Main Menu or the Discover More button on the bottom of the Home Page.
To see fixed groupings of cards, click on the categories listed on the Main Menu. Students have 4 categories of cards: Academics, Community, Reporting, and My Account.
The Student Profile is part of Student Self-Service and differs from the portal Profile (which shows minimal info about who is logged into MyMassasoit). Students can reach the Student Profile from the Student Self-Service link on the Launchpad or via several cards listed under the Academics category.

Please keep in mind that Student information about registrations, financial aid, payments, etc. is also found in Student Self-Service on the Student Profile page. It is accessible via the link on the Launchpad and via links on several other academic cards. Here is a partial view of the Student Profile, showing links to other info and tasks.
