The Basics

Creating a university account

Before you can use University computers, you must register for an IT Account. Even if you have used e:Vision to enrol online, you must still register to use the computers and IT facilities. You’ll need your seven digit student number (from your offer letter) and date of birth.

Note that international students register for their IT account when they arrive during our international welcome activities.
