How do I log in to the MT Housing Portal?

In order to access the MT Housing Portal, you must be accepted to MTSU and have a Pipeline log-in. Your username for the MT Housing Portal is the alphanumeric user id at the start of your campus email (example: abc4y). Your password is the same password used to log in to Pipeline. If you experience issues, please email housing@mtsu.edu and we will check your access.
