ORIGINAL Access Blackboard

You can log in to Blackboard on a web browser on your computer or on a mobile app.

Web browser

You need three pieces of information to access Blackboard:

  • The web address of your institution's Blackboard site

  • Your username

  • Your password

Student login screen for Blackboard

In most cases, the web address directs you to the login page. If you're directed to another location, look for a login button or a special portal area.

Note

If you can't find your institution's site, search the web for your institution's name + Blackboard, or contact your IT help desk.

What happens after I log in?

New users see a welcome page that invites them to create a profile. Before you create a profile, you must accept the Blackboard Profiles Terms of Service in the pop-up window. If you don't agree to the terms of service, you won't be granted access to some tools. You can choose to create a profile later.Profile for Students
