Optionally, you can also send a text to your registered mobile phone.

  1. Tick the radio button for “Email to my external email address”

You should now receive an email to your personal email address with a link to reset your password.

💠 Step 4

  1. Enter a New Password

Troubleshooting

External Email Address Issues?

If you’re aren’t receiving the passphrase retrieval email, it may be that you are using a different external email address to the one registered with the University or you need to check your junk mail.
