SHSU myAccess VPN

Get Started

The MyAccess VPN system will allow you to access various SHSU software, systems and files remotely.  You must request and be approved for this type of access. Once your access has been approved, you will be able to access software, systems and files on the SHSU network from any computer off-campus as long as there is an internet connection.

Note: A link will no longer be available with direct access to the S and T drives after logging in. To view the S and T drive remotely, simply log in to your office desktop via MyAccess or use remote.shsu.edu. For additional information regarding the remote.shsu.edu option, visit here.
