Kenyon Email Set-Up Instructions


A Kenyon email address and a temporary password will be shared with you. To log in to your Kenyon email account, you will need to create a new password, enable 2-Step Verification and sign into Gmail.

1) Create your password

In a web browser, go to https://reset.kenyon.edu.
Create and verify a new password (see password requirements). Click Submit.
If you successfully set a new password, you will receive a confirmation message.
If you receive an error message, see possible error messages for more information.
If you don't successfully change your password on the first attempt, close the page, then open a new tab and try again.
Do not attempt to reload the reset.kenyon.edu webpage.
If you cannot successfully change your network password using reset.kenyon.edu, call Helpline at 740-427-5700 for assistance.

2) Enable 2-step verification

You must enable 2-Step Verification before you sign into your Kenyon Gmail account, or Google will lock you out of your account. 2-Step Verification (2SV) protects your Kenyon Google account by requiring you to verify your identity when you sign on from a new computer or device.Read Kenyon's Google 2-Step Verification Enrollment Guide to learn more.
In a web browser, go to https://myaccount.google.com/signinoptions/two-step-verification/enroll-welcome.
Click Get Started and follow the prompts.
When asked to enter your Kenyon email address, include @kenyon.edu.

3) Log into your Kenyon email account

After enabling 2SV in Step 2, open a new browser tab and go to https://www.gmail.com.
If prompted, enter your Kenyon email address, including @kenyon.edu, and your new password.
Check your Kenyon email account frequently for important updates and announcements from Kenyon.
