Personal Websites
George Mason University provides personal web space on mason.gmu.edu for eligible students, faculty, and staff.
Personal websites use an address such as https://mason.gmu.edu/~netid, where netid is your Mason NetID.
Student Organizations
Student organizations should use Mason360, George Mason’s official student engagement platform, rather than requesting web hosting from ITS.
For information about registered student organizations and Mason360, see:
Colleges, Departments, and Other University Units
George Mason supports enterprise web platforms for eligible official university websites, including SiteMasonry CMS and Mason WordPress. Both platforms use George Mason’s brand standards to provide a consistent university web experience.
The Office of University Branding (OUB) and Information Technology Services (ITS) collaborate to support George Mason’s enterprise web ecosystem. The Office of University Branding provides university brand guidance and resources and supports the SiteMasonry platform and its users. ITS provides professional web services and supports Mason WordPress installations and users.
Mason WordPress installations are available for eligible official university units, including colleges and departments. They are not intended for individual faculty or student personal websites or individual organizations.
For assistance with web hosting, professional web services, or an existing Mason WordPress website, see Web Hosting & Support.
