Overview
The access listed on this page applies to students, employees, and others with university appointments. If you are not affiliated with the university as one of these, please see Guest Access to UO Technology.
Access is granted based on your primary affiliation as recorded in Banner. If you have more than one job, access is based on the job designated as primary by Human Resources. This access is automated by our Identity Management (IDM) system, except as noted. Automated access is updated once per day overnight.
Some systems are run by individual departments and are not centrally managed. These systems may have different rules or requirements for access. Please contact the department hosting those systems for access information.
