3-      Select the SECOND password reset option - ‘Do you have a WBS username’?

 

4-      Fill out the information. For the university number just use your student number without the ‘u’. For the date of birth please include the forward slashes and then press continue.

 

5-      You can then request the password reset link to your email address - select your Warwick student email address.

 

6-      The email you receive will include your WBS USERNAME and a link to set your password.
A password must be set. You will not be able to use your WBS account until this is done.

 

7-      After you have set a password, you can then login to My WBS, EveryonePrint and the PCs in the WBS building with the WBS username that you were emailed and your newly set password.

8-      REMEMBER – Please just use your WBS account for the above services for the best experience.

  • You will also have a WBS account with a different username which also lets you login to the online printing service and the PCs at WBS.
