Service Summary

MyMason provides access to Blackboard courses and organizations. Organizations is a unique feature of myMason that allows any and all groups—from the smallest club at Mason to the largest—to stay informed and receive information specific to their organization. You can search through the organizations that exist and select those from which you would like to receive information. You can also request your own Organization and publish content to your members. (Note: Student organizations need to be recognized by the university.)

Additionally, users with a faculty and/or student role will see the Courses and Content tabs. Access to these tabs is for faculty and students enrolled in courses through Patriot Web.

Users also have links to email (mail.gmu.edu), and Patriot Web.
