How do I get to the Student Email Homepage?
Go to the UT Tyler home page at www.uttyler.edu. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the STUDENT EMAIL LINK.
On the next page, read the instructions for Logging into the Patriots email server.
Login using your USERNAME and PASSWORD.
Your "USERNAME" is a combination of your first initial, and your last name. You can not use apostrophes, accent marks, underscores, or any type of punctuation except a hyphen. You also can not use Jr., III or other similar endings.
An example of a "USERNAME" might be jsmith@patriots.uttyler.edu
Notice that some usernames include a number. This is a result of two or more users sharing the same first intitial and last name. Do not try and guess the number listed with your name. Instead, use the "Username Lookup" link found on the menu bar of the UT Tyler Patriot Email home page. Simply enter your student ID number and this link will provide you with your username.
If you have difficulty logging into your Patriot email account, please view the "EMAIL FAQ" located on the UT Tyler Patriot Email home page.
