Before you can use Computing Services' facilities you have to self-register. You can do this using any networked PC. All you need is your ID number from your University card. Once you have self-registered you have access to the Managed Windows Service (MWS), your email account and your own secure area of filestore (your M: drive) which you can use to store your files.

Undergraduate Self-Registration
When you self-register you are given your own username (a unique log-in code that you keep through your time at the University) and a password.
