UWS is implementing a set of powerful email, web, and collaboration tools that can help you work faster and gain skills for the workplace. Microsoft Office 365 includes your favorite Office features online and allows you to create sophisticated reports and presentations, collaborate in real time with classmates, and share and edit documents from your phone, PC, or Mac.
We expect your account to be upgraded shortly after 1st July 2013.
What does this mean for you?
After the upgrade you will have two separate accounts with the same user name and password.
These are the same as you currently use to access your Student Email.
Please watch the video which explains this process - http://bit.ly/2accounts

Office 365 account. This account gives you access to your student email. UWS Helpdesk administers this account.
-
Personal Microsoft account. This personal account will give you access to all your existing SkyDrive content, Messenger, and other Microsoft services. Note that UWS no longer administer this account. As a result, we cannot reset this password for you.
