Change personal (non-Pomona) recovery email address in MyPassword
Note:
The My Password resources (http://mypassword.pomona.edu) gives one the ability to change or recover their Pomona College account password.
However, the process of recovering your Pomona College account password only works if you have a current personal recovery email address (non-Pomona College; Gmail, iCloud, Proton Mail, etc.) indicated on your My Password account profile.
The instructions below will show one how to update their recovery email address for My Password.
Steps:
- Open a new incognito window (Google Chrome) or new private window (Safari, Firefox or Edge).
- Visit http://www.myworkday.com/theclaremontcolleges .
- At that 'Central Authentication Service' page, switch the institution to Pomona College and then click the ' LOGIN ' button.
- You should then be taken to a Microsoft login page (with Stover Walk in the background). Authenticate there with your username (username@pomona.edu) and new password.
- You may be asked to configure your DUO multifactor authentication (MFA) account profile. Please follow the on-screen instructions to do so.
- You should now be logged into Workday. Click on the 'Menu' in the upper left corner and select 'Personal Information'.
- Click on the 'Email Addresses' option.
- On the next page, click on 'Edit'.
- Change the email address under 'Home Contact Information'. Then, click 'Submit'.
Human Resources will approve the change as soon as possible. Shortly after that, the recovery email address will update in the My Password account profile.
