Feel free to learn more about the service – you can find it at:

To change the e-mail address displayed in the USOS PROFILE, please:

1. log in to usosweb.uj.edu.pl using a username in the @student.uj.edu.pl or @doctoral.uj.edu.pl domain and your current password,
2. select MY USOSWEB tab; select the PROFILE button on the left side of the screen,
3. enter your current e-mail address in the university domain in the “Change e-mail address” and confirm by clicking UPDATE DATA,

In order to change your e-mail address if you change your legal name, follow the instructions below:

1. This applies only to students/PhD candidates employed at the University, as well as former employees of the Jagiellonian University. If you change your legal name, please contact the Department of Human Resources (Straszewskiego 27, floor I) – bring a proof of your identity.
2. All students/PhD candidates have to inform the Dean’s Office of their respective unit about the fact of legal name change.
3. The information about a legal name change should be sent to pomocit@uj.edu.plalong with a request for a relevant change in the e-mail address.
4. After checking your data and modifying your account, you will receive a letter with further information.

The old email address remains automatically assigned as an alias to the new one.

PLEASE NOTE:

Due to some differences between the staff and student e-mail servers (including PhD candidates), after changing the address on the student account, the contents stored in the mailbox may be temporarily unavailable.

If you forget your password, you can reset it yourself using a procedure based on SMS messages.

This procedure is possible only if the user has previously added a phone number, which can be used to receive SMS with a code.

If the above condition is met, the user can reset the password themselves by running an application available at https://idm.uj.edu.pl/PasswordReset

Please note that if you have both an employee and a student account, you will change passwords to both accounts at the same time..

It may take a few minutes to propagate a new password for Office 365.

This procedure does not cover setting a new SAP password and your password to the PI staff website.

You can add the phone number used in this procedure in your Personal Identity Profile or (for employees migrating their e-mail accounts from the old system) on the activation screen of the new e-mail account. More about the PIP.

A step-by-step description of the password reset procedure is available at http://www.dis.uj.edu.pl/uslugi-it/zarzadzanie-tozsamoscia/odzyskiwanie-hasla

In order to recover the password to the e-mail account, the student/PhD candidate has to contact the Dean’s Office of the relevant unit of the Jagiellonian University and produce a valid proof of identity to receive a temporary password. If you have any problems, you can get help by contacting us at pomocit@uj.edu.pl.

The temporary password needs to be changed as soon as possible. This can only be done via the Jagiellonian University login gateway (https://login.uj.edu.pl). You may not change your password directly in the Office 365 cloud.

The password change procedure is described in the article below.

To change the password, go to the Jagiellonian University login gateway (http://login.uj.edu.pl), log in and then follow the instructions in the "CHANGE PASSWORD" tab, which is visible only after logging in.

PLEASE NOTE:

The new password should be 8-16 characters long and should contain at least:

• One uppercase letter
• One lowercase letter
• One number
• One of the following special characters: @#$%^&*-_+=[]{}|:,.?/~()

The Jagiellonian University uses an automatic messaging system, which sends out messages to predefined user groups. New students, PhD candidates and staff are automatically assigned to the appropriate group. 

For organisational and administrative reasons, it is not possible to leave groups for students and staff, and receiving e-mails submitted to a given group is mandatory.
