Additional Resources

• Minnesota State Self Service. The State of MN Self Service website allows you to view/print your pay stub, change your home address, enroll in insurance benefits (if eligible), as well as access other payroll functions. You will receive an email with your User ID, after your employment has been documented in the personnel and payroll systems. Your User ID is your State Employee ID, which is an assigned 8-digit number. If this is your first time logging in, use the last four digits of your social security number followed by MN!! or click Forgot Password. Previous state employees should already have a User ID and password.
• Eligible for Benefits? Start familiarizing yourself with them. SEGIP provides a variety of health and wellbeing benefit programs for state employees and other organizations that participate in SEGIP. The state’s health benefits include medical and optional dental insurance, a pharmacy benefit and programs that offer health coaching and worksite wellness initiatives. Wellbeing programs include life, disability and long-term care insurance; and pre-tax spending accounts for medical, dental, vision, childcare, parking and commuting expenses.
• Access Systems & Your Email. New to NTC: You will need a StarID to access the university systems such as MyNTC, Workday and email. If you are brand new to Minnesota State (formerly MnSCU), then you need to activate your StarID. If you already have a StarID, even if it is from another Minnesota State institution, you’re all set. Please note that it takes at least 24 hours for email to start synchronizing into mailbox. Official notifications regarding your employment, updates, announcements and, campus events will come to you through email. You will want to make sure and check your email account, even if it is not your primary email account.
