Check your Panthermail regularly to receive up-to-date information about scholarships, financial aid, and your student account.
Your Panthermail is your official EIU email account, created for you after you have first signed up for classes at Eastern. Even though you have not yet started classes at EIU, you should still check your Panthermail regularly.
After you've signed up for classes, you'll also need to download the Microsoft Authenticator app on your phone to help keep your personal information safe while you're a student at EIU. You can find step-by-step instructions on how to do that at https://www.eiu.edu/panthertech.
Some sensitive information about your classes and student account will ONLY be sent to your Panthermail account, and will NOT be sent to the personal email address listed on Your Profile, unless you have your email forwarded to your personal account (see below).
After you have first signed up for classes at EIU and set up extra security for your account, you'll be able to sign in using your email address and password:

EIU only supports the Microsoft Outlook App for setting up email on mobile devices. To do so, follow the instructions on this PantherTech Support page.
You may find it more convenient to forward all the emails sent to your Panthermail to a personal email account. To do so, follow the instructions on this PantherTech Support page.
