Each student is provided with a UB e-mail account through the Microsoft Office365 academic programme. All UB information will be sent via the UB e-mail account as this account is the only officially recognised means of communicating with UB students. Students are encouraged to use this account for course-related communication and communication with UB in general as opposed to individual personal email accounts.

On initial enrollment, each student is provided with a username and password for accessing their UB account. Students can log on to their accounts at https://login.microsoftonline.com
