WebCT Login and Password

At ENMU we use WebCT, a computer program, to deliver online courses. The first thing you'll need to do, after you've been accepted to the University and registered for classes, is to activate your electronic accounts. This will activate your e-mail account. In most online classes, you are required to use your ENMU e-mail account for correspondence.

Your WebCT ID will be your student ID number. Your student ID number is on your ENMU ID, and on your schedule of classes. Please change your password as soon as possible. Your pasword will be your date of birth.

To log in:

1. Go to the ENMU home page.
2. Under the Current Students menu, click on WebCT.
3. Log in to your class.

Keep in mind that online class materials aren't usually available until the day traditional classes start meeting.

You might also want to call your professor. Professors may be out of their offices during interim periods between semesters, until a few days before the class starts.

WebCT Help Desk

If you have technical problems with your WebCT course, please view the frequently-encountered problems and solutions. If you don't find the information you need, scroll to the bottom of the page for a list of numbers to call for WebCT help desk at 1.866.283.3328

Signing up for E-Mail

Every student at ENMU is given an e-mail account. Your address will be first.lastname@enmu.edu, such as john.doe@enmu.edu. To set up your e-mail account and all electronic accounts (such as WebCT), click here, then read and follow the directions. After you agree to follow the policy, you will be asked for some information, and then you'll be given your login and password.

Sample WebCT Course

Once you get signed in to your WebCT course, you can access a sample course with pointers on how to succeed in online curricula. This sample course includes mock-ups of all of the components in a typical class.
