Getting Started

This email contains the following information:

1. 1. Your College username (i.e. joebloggs***@glasgowkelvin.ac.uk)
   2. How to work out your password
   3. How to setup Self Service Password Reset (which allows you to regain access to your account if you forget your changed password)
   4. And other useful links

Please check your spam or junk email folders in case the email has been placed there instead of your Inbox.

Your default password is not very secure - Self-Service Password Reset will allow you to change your password to one which is less easy for people to guess. When you register for SSPR it will let you change password later if you forget it.

You can watch a video on how to set up SSPR here 

If you have set up SSPR on your account and you need to reset you password, click on this link, and follow the on-screen instructions:

You can’t reset your password yourself if you haven’t set up SSPR on your account beforehand.

Log into MyKelvin - again with your College email address and password - by going to https://mykelvin.glasgowkelvin.ac.uk . MyKelvin is the College's Student information portal. It provides Students with a range of information on things like Library Services, the Student Association, Finance and Funding.

We suggest that you visit the Getting Started page on MyKelvin as this will show you what apps you should download and provide general information about IT systems at Glasgow Kelvin.
