Get to know DePaul’s new website and portal

By Cristel Turner, Bob McCormick and Arbin Smith / February 23, 2026 / Twitter / Facebook

Dear Faculty, Staff and Students, 

To help you become more familiar with DePaul’s new website and portal, we’re sharing a quick guide to help you navigate these new tools: 

The public website – depaul.edu 

  • A refreshed, contemporary design brings the university to life through dynamic visuals and video, helping us stay relevant and engaging for today’s audiences. 
  • A new Program Explorer tool helps prospective students and families easily discover academic programs and explore areas of interest.  
  • A more streamlined structure reduces duplication and brings related content together in one place, replacing the previous experience of navigating multiple pages with the same information. 
MyDePaul, the internal portal – my.depaul.edu     

  • For the first time, we now have a dedicated internal portal created specifically for faculty, staff and students. 
  • MyDePaul offers a personalized experience designed to bring the tools and information most relevant to you into one easy-to-navigate space.  
  • With single sign-on access to D2L, Campus Connect, BlueSky, DeHub, advising resources and university services, the essentials you rely on every day are now just a click away. Remember to bookmark MyDePaul if you haven’t already.  
  • A MyDePaul resource guide is available to help you explore what’s new and make the most of these features. There are also interactive, step-by-step click-through guides for  students, faculty and  staff.

  • Follow ongoing updates on the Digital Transformation Launch Updates site. 
We recognize the new website is a significant shift in how we organize and deliver information across our university community. Thank you for taking the time to explore these new tools, and we hope you find these additional resources helpful. We will continue to keep our university community informed with any new updates.  

Sincerely,
