This link brings you to a PDF document titled – Getting started with Student IT Facilities (after Registering as a student in TUS Midlands)
The document you access is provided to assist new students who have just completed the registration process in TUS Midlands with the follow-on actions to get you up and running with their IT facilities.
Every student gets a Microsoft Office 365 account which is accessible from any internet connection. This account includes facilities such as student email, OneDrive (online storage) and a facility for students to download a free version of Microsoft Office to personally owned computers or laptops.
Students also get an TUS Midlands computer account for logging into student computers on campus and a Moodle account (where you will access your lecture notes) etc.
When you register, you will use (or have used) a Registration account (with a username and a PIN (your 6 digit DOB)).
Note: This Registration account is separate to your Computer account (& computer account password). See the section on the last page of this document which clearly explains what these two separate accounts are used for.
