IDs for students at Dumfries Campus
UofG students attending Dumfries campus have more than one user ID. This is because you have user accounts for both the University of Glasgow and the University of the West of Scotland.
University of Glasgow:
- For most IT services, use your UofG email address as your username along with your password
- You will need your GUID (Glasgow Unique IDentifier) as a username for some services at the University. Your GUID is your student number followed by the first letter of your surname, for example 1012345A.
University of West of Scotland: UWS AD
- Your UWS AD is your GUID prefixed with a G, for example eg G1012345A
- Use this for Wi-Fi, filestore access, cluster workstations and printing on the Dumfries campus.
University of Glasgow: GUID
Note: This will change your password for ALL University of Glasgow IT services.
University of West of Scotland: UWS AD
- While logged into a Dumfries cluster workstation, press Ctrl-Alt-Del then change your password in the dialogue box.
Note: this only changes your G-GUID password, and is only for logging into Dumfries cluster PCs.
