Are You New?


Welcome to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville!

We’re here to help you with all of the technology services you will use while at UT. Consult these helpful guides to learn about options, processes, policies — all things UT OIT!

Getting Started: STUDENTS

Get the most out of your time at UT! Whether you need help connecting to the wireless network, accessing software (for personal and school use), learning a new skill, or more, we’re here for you!

When You’re Admitted

When you’re admitted, you are assigned a university NetID. Your NetID gives you access to a variety of university applications and services and allows you to register for classes. Know your NetID and password before coming to campus for orientation. Your NetID also gives you access to UT email, which will be the primary way the university will contact you; be sure to frequently check your UT email.
