Managing Your SSO Account

Your primary University account is known as your Single Sign-On (SSO) account.

 

When you join the University, you will be provided with:

  • An SSO username
  • An activation link
  • An activation code

These details are used to activate your account for the first time.

 

Once your account has been activated, you will be required to configure Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) when you first sign in. This is typically completed using the Microsoft Authenticator app, although alternative authentication methods are also available.

 

Your SSO password is valid for 12 months. You will receive notifications before your password expires and will be prompted to create a new password.

 

If you need to reset or change your password outside of the normal renewal cycle, for example if you have forgotten your password, you can manage your account using the link below:
