The University, in co-operation with Microsoft, provides a web-based email service to all students. When you register with the University, you will be issued with an email account on Microsoft's Office 365 environment. A corresponding Ulster University email address will be provided to you at enrolment.

What is my email address and password?
If you are unsure, please refer to your Student Banner record for your email address and/or initial network password (as used for the Portal).
FAO Returning Students only: The changeover from the old @email.ulster.ac.uk email addresses to @ulster.ac.uk addresses (and associated OneDrives) took place on MONDAY 11th SEPTEMBER 2017. You should not attempt to use your old @email.ulster.ac.uk address. This issue does not affect new students registered in 18-19 academic year. Please see this advice page for more details.
How Do I Access My Email?
When you click the 'Email and OneDrive' button in the Portal you will be redirected to the Office 365 login page where you will use your University email address and network password. Please read the guidance on accessing email by clicking on this link.
You can also login directly at the web address https://portal.office.com
