Access to UVA Electronic Resources

Students enrolled through the School of Continuing and Professional Studies need a UVA Computing ID and System Generated UVA Password to:

• Use the Student Information System (SIS)
• Read UVA email (Email is the University’s official means of communication with students.)
• Use Canvas
• Access other electronic resources such as the UVA libraries

Within 72 hours after submitting the Visiting Student form, students who have not had prior affiliation with the University will receive their UVA Computing ID and Student Information System (SIS) ID via email.  If you did not receive this email and need to obtain a UVA Computing ID and SIS ID, please go to Retrieve Your UVA Computing and SIS IDS.  Log in to your UVA Gmail account and follow the Student IT Checklist.
