ARTICLE INTENDED FOR:

Faculty and staff users of Starfish

INTRODUCTION:

Users with a currently active Starfish role and with an active connection to at least one student can log into Starfish.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Open a web browser and navigate to starfish.psu.edu.
  2. Click the "Starfish Login" button.
  3. Enter your Penn State single sign-on (SSI) ID and password.
  4. Confirm your login with multifactor authentication (MFA).

Faculty and Staff View of the Starfish Homepage

Upon logging in, you will see your Starfish homepage. The homepage shows your dashboard, which includes upcoming appointments, recent changes, and services to which you are connected. If you are in a role that connects to all students, you will see some information that is not relevant to you. You can close and rearrange tiles.

The triple bar or "hamburger" icon opens additional Starfish functions.
