Wellesley Login

The Wellesley Login allows alumnae to sign into various College systems and websites using a single username and password that will authenticate access.

Your Wellesley Login account is hosted by Google, so your Wellesley username/password also works with all of the Google apps: Mail, Calendar, Drive, and more!

Your Login for All Wellesley Systems, Including:

  • The Wellesley College Alumnae Directory
  • The Wellesley College Alumnae Association (WCAA) websites for classes, clubs, and shared identity groups
  • The Wellesley Hive, our mentoring and networking platform exclusively for Wellesley alumnae and students
  • The Class Notes section of the Wellesley magazine website
  • Volunteer tools
  • Select parts of the College website, including transcript requests

(Please note: if you have not contacted the Computing Help Desk to unlock your account beforehand, you will need to complete this step first. They can be reached at 781-283-7777 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (ET), Monday - Friday for assistance with this. The Help Desk staff includes many wonderful student workers assisting with calls and emails.

What is the Duo two-factor authentication (2FA) and why is it required for my Wellesley Login?

For several years, Wellesley has required all students and employees to use two-factor authentication (2FA) to log in to college systems. This remains the most effective defense against hackers attempting to steal personal information. The principle is straightforward: you log in using something you know (your password) and something you have (your phone).

Before 2025, we did not require 2FA for alumnae, understanding that infrequent logins can make additional steps feel burdensome. However, with the recent surge in sophisticated phishing attempts targeting accounts, including those of several alumnae, it is now essential to enable Duo 2FA for alumnae to safeguard your information. Thank you for helping us protect your information and keep our systems secure.

What if my account is disabled/locked?

Please contact the Computing Help Desk at 781-283-7777 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (ET), Monday - Friday.
