  is Coming Soon!!

Your Duquesne e-mail account is your primary means of communication between you and other Duquesne community members such as advisors, instructors, classmates, students, co-workers, and associates.  DU Email is the official vehicle for the University to communicate with you regarding important issues including billing of student accounts and campus emergencies, news, and events.

Account Creation
Your email account will be automatically created when you have been entered into our administrative system, Banner.  As a student this will be when you are deposited, as a faculty, administrator, or staff member it will be when you are made active in Banner by Human Resources.

Use MultiPass username & password
You will use your email address and MultiPass password to access your DU email. If you are unsure of your username, please visit this link:  http://www.duq.edu/multipass
