Students: WiFi Registration

OVERVIEW

Students must register their computer in order to gain access to the MA WiFi network: MA Campus. When your computer uses the MA Campus WiFi network, you can print, connect to Apple TVs, use Zoom, and have a faster internet experience.

INSTRUCTIONS

In order to register your computer, please complete the following Google form. The most important information necessary for that form is your computer's MAC address (this does not have anything to do with being a Mac computer).
