New students at UB need to get ready before they come to UB and
learn to connect once they arrive on campus.
You are a new student when you confirm your intent to attend UB
and make a tuition payment.
In order to gain access to your new UBITName account, which lets
you use computer-related services at UB, you'll need these
credentials issued to you by UB:
- Your UBIT account name, i.e. your UBITName
- Your UB Person Number
- The single-use password
You receive these credentials in different ways depending on
your status:
- International student: from the International
Student and Scholars Services during International Student
Orientation after you arrive at UB
- Undergraduate, non-International student: from Admissions after applying
to UB
- Graduate, non-International student: from your
department after being accepted
- Non-matriculated student: From the CIT Help Desk,
Lockwood 2nd Floor Cybrary. Fax (716-645-3617) a scan of government
issued photo ID along with a request for your account claim
credentials.
Once you have gained access to the account, you set a password
to access it in the future.
