Your University email account

You can use your university email account after you have activated your IT (MWS) account. Please allow 24 hours for your email account to be ready for use.

To access your email, visit either the student intranet page or go directly to outlook.office.com.

Format and password

There are two different identification formats you should be aware of that you will use:

IT (MWS) account username Formatted MYName e.g. JBloggs

University email Formatted My.Name@liverpool.ac.uk e.g. Joe.Bloggs@liverpool.ac.uk

If you share your initials and surname with another person, a number will be added after your surname.

The password for both username and email will be the same.

Accessing your email

To log into your email address, you must use the format USERNAME@liverpool.ac.uk and your password.

When sharing your email, you should provide EMAIL@liverpool.ac.uk

Inbox

Sometimes you might see your email address formatted with your faculty acronym and username on internal services e.g. Humanities and Social Sciences would become HSSJBloggs@liverpool.ac.uk. For safety and security, please use the above formats as directed and not this version.

Emails sent to any version of your email e.g. username@liverpool.ac.uk, email@liverpool.ac.uk and facultyusername@liverpool.ac.uk will all be redirected to your inbox.
