About Your UVa Email
Setting up a UVa Email account requires you to:
-

Generated Password.
You will need your UVa Computing ID and Password for the following:

This is what will happen and what you need to do
When your registration is complete an email will be sent to you from the
new Student System (SIS).
This email will instruct you to go to:

instructions on that page and subsequent pages. Also be sure to complete
all the steps, so that you not only secure your System Generated
Password but also get your email account completely established and
registered.
