To access UTS applications alumni will need to reset their passwords using their full alumni email address
Alumni reset password
Existing passwords on alumni accounts are no longer accepted and need to be updated to a stronger, unique password. Updating your password makes your account more secure, and protects UTS from risk.
Reset your password now
When accessing UTS systems such as Outlook you will need to enter your full name alumni email address.
Your full name email address usually includes your first name and last name, and may include an additional initial or number e.g. jane.citizen@alumni.uts.edu.au, jane.g.citizen@alumni.uts.edu.au, jane.citizen-1@alumni.uts.edu.au.
When setting your password we recommend you always use a strong and unique password.
- Your password must be 8 to 16 character long with no spaces. It can only contain letters, numbers and symbols and must contain at least one of each.
Do not use your UTS Student ID number. - If you have previously chosen security questions and answers, you will be prompted to answer them to reset your password.
