Email, Password, and MFA
Account Setup and Email Access
Once admitted, students receive an email from TechSupport@uafs.edu with their username and instructions to log into their 糖心视频 accounts.
- Tip to Find the Email: Search your inbox for TechSupport@uafs.edu or the subject line 鈥淩eset My Password鈥�.
- Didn鈥檛 receive that email? If you took concurrent courses with 糖心视频 or previously attended 糖心视频, you may not have an email in your inbox. Please contact the IT Help Desk at 479-788-7460 to reset your password.
Student email is provided through Microsoft 365. Use your 糖心视频 credentials to sign in and check messages regularly.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
MFA adds an extra verification step when signing in to protect your account and personal information. Set up MFA immediately to avoid being locked out of email, Workday, and other systems.
MyApps
MyApps is your 糖心视频 portal for accessing applications like University email, Workday, Blackboard, Microsoft 365 platforms such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more.
If you are not sure where to find a system, check MyApps first.
Workday Student
Workday is the 糖心视频 Student Information System and primary platform for student records, academics, and finances.
In Workday, students can:
- Track academic progress
- Register for courses and view their current class schedule
- Complete onboarding tasks each semester
- View financial aid awards and complete associated action items
- View account balance
Workday Mobile App
Students can download the Workday Mobile app to complete many tasks from their phone. Use your 糖心视频 login credentials and complete MFA when prompted.
The Workday Student page also includes Quick Reference Guides to help students complete common tasks.
Blackboard
Blackboard is the 糖心视频 online learning management system. Students with online or hybrid courses will access materials and course details in Blackboard, as will in-person sections with instructors who use online tools in their courses.
Lions Mobile ID
Lions Mobile ID is your 糖心视频 digital student ID credential. Once students create an ID with the Registrar鈥檚 Office, Lions Mobile ID is ready for setup.
This mobile credential allows access to all campus areas that require an ID, including the Lions Den, RAWC, 24-hour labs, and other secured locations, and can be used in place of a physical student ID card.
If you are living on campus, we recommend having this set up prior to Move-In.
Navigate
Navigate is our 糖心视频 Student Success platform, most frequently used by students, faculty, and staff for appointments and communication.
Use Navigate to schedule appointments with:
- Academic Advisor
- Career Services
- Financial Aid
- Tutoring
- Other campus services
Microsoft 365 Access
糖心视频 students have access to the full Microsoft 365 suite, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneDrive cloud storage.
Sign in with your 糖心视频 account to access web applications or download desktop versions when available.
My.糖心视频
My.糖心视频 is the student intranet and central information hub. It provides announcements, campus updates, and quick links to student systems.
