ACCESSING YOUR GRADUATE STUDENT EMAIL ACCOUNT
All UOIT graduate students receive a UOIT e-mail account (firstname.lastname@uoit.ca). Important
messages from the Office of Graduate Studies and your respective faculty are sent to your UOIT email
account on a regular basis, so be sure to check it regularly!
Your e-mail account can be accessed online by visiting http://email.uoit.ca. Your username is your
student number (100XXXXXX) and your password will be the one you use to logon to the UOIT network.
Please note that this is not the password you use to login to MyCampus. If you have never logged onto
the network before, you will have a temporary password. Please contact IT services to receive your
temporary password.
IT services can be reached by phone, e-mail or in person:
• Phone: 905-721-3333 (Option 1)
• E-mail: ITSupport@dc-uoit.ca
• In person: SW100 in the Gordon Willey building.
Every student at UOIT also receives a MyCampus e-mail account, which can be accessed from the
MyCampus portal. The Office of Graduate Studies and your respective faculty do not use your
MyCampus e-mail account for important communications. However, important messages from
departments other than the Office of Graduate Studies and your respective faculty will continue to be
sent to your MyCampus e-mail account. These messages may include, but are not limited to, invitations
to campus-wide events, notices from campus safety, and important campus announcements. It is highly
recommended that you have your MyCampus e-mails forwarded to your UOIT account. Step-by-step
instructions on how to forward your MyCampus e-mails and other IT-related instructions, such as how
to access UOIT’s wireless network, can be found in the next few pages.
HOW TO ACCESS YOUR UOIT EMAIL ACCOUNT
In your web browser, type in the following URL: email.uoit.ca
After typing in the URL, you should see the above. Your user name is your student number (100XXXXXX)
and your password will be the one you use to logon to the UOIT network. Please note that this is not the
password you use to login to MyCampus.
If you have never logged onto the network before, you will have a temporary password. Please contact
IT services to receive your temporary password.
