About Your UVa Email  

Setting up a UVa Email account requires you to:

1. Obtain your UVa Computing ID
2. Obtain your UVa System Generated Password
3. Establish a UVa Gmail account

Whenever you are presented with a Netbadge Login Page you will use your Computing ID and System Generated Password.  

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

• To use the new Student Information System (SIS)
• To use UVa Collab
• Various other electronic resources

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: http://whois.virginia.edu/scps/ 

Be sure to set aside a time when you can follow carefully the 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. 

IMPORTANT: Be sure to record the System Generated Password accurately (passwords are case sensitive), be sure to set it aside in a place where you can easily find it in the future. If you ever forget your Password you can return to http://whois.virginia.edu/scps and recover it. 

Email is the official communication instrument for all students and instructors at the university.

We are recommending that SCPS students establish a UVa Gmail account, ensuring an ongoing UVa email account that has ample storage space to keep all your UVa related email in one location.

After the Gmail account is established Login and finish the setup by following the instructions given on the Gmail webpage.
