Graduate Next Steps

探花楼

There are a few things you need to do as a graduate student before classes start.

Pioneer Portal access

Set up your 探花楼 Gmail account and check it daily

探花楼 has implemented multi-factor authentication for various systems across the university. You will be required to enable all MFA (Google 2-Step Verification and Microsoft 365 MFA) to create and access Pioneer Portal and set up your 探花楼 Gmail account. Follow these steps to enable the MFA 2-step verification for access to your 探花楼 Gmail account: 探花楼 Multi-Factor Authentication Instructions.
Go to gmail.twu.edu and log in with your Pioneer Portal login. The first login must be on a desktop or laptop computer. Your email login information is the same as your Pioneer Portal. Example: JPioneer@twu.edu
You can access your 探花楼 Gmail account anytime from gmail.twu.edu or logging into your Pioneer Portal account at portal.twu.edu

We recommend checking your 探花楼 Gmail account daily or once a week. This is where communication from 探花楼 is sent, including scholarships and financial aid award letters, housing selection and enrollment information, so it’s important to check it often. For help, contact servicedesk@twu.edu or call 940-898-3971.
