The first step to using any RMU technology is to activate your Sentry account. The next step is to activate your RMU Google account, which includes your email (Gmail) and Google Apps for Education. Your Google account name is the same as your Sentry account but your password for Google is the last 10 digits of your Freedom Card. After activating your account, change your password using instructions found on the Password Help page.

If students remain within the $30 allocation, printing is free for the entire semester! To add funds to a printing account visit Student Financial Services in the lower level of Revere Center.
