Setting Up and Using Your Hopkins E-mail

Your JHEM email

By default, your JHEM email is [your login ID]@jhed.jhu.edu. If you desire, you can set up an easy to remember email alias to use instead or have your JHEM email forward to an existing email account of your preference. To use this email account you must first activate your JHED ID. To accomplish this, you may wish to follow our tutorial for Activating your Johns Hopkins Enterprise Directory (JHED) Login. If you encounter problems accesssing your JHEM account, contact the Help Desk at 410-516-HELP.

You can access your JHEM email via two methods:

1) Log into the student portal at my.jhu.edu or my.johnshopkins.edu. Click the "JHEM" icon or the "Inbox" link of the Email preview channel. This will launch your web-based email client.

2) You can also access your JHEM email by pointing your browser directly to jhem.jhu.edu or jhem.johnshopkins.edu. You will need to log in with your JHED ID and password.
