Adding Phone Number or Email to Self Service

Adding your phone number or email to Self Service will provide you with an alternative way to reset your password if you don’t have your old password for your Allegheny account, or didn’t change it in time. 

IMPORTANT

Before you start, log out of all non-Allegheny Gmail accounts (personal, work, etc.) on your device. Self Service and other Allegheny College services often will not work as expected if they detect that you are logged into any Gmail account other than your @allegheny.edu account.
