Four UTAS Websites That'll Save Your Arse

Your first year of university (and every subsequent year) as a student can be an overwhelming experience. Not only do you need to know your way around the campus, but you’ll also need to learn how to navigate the uni websites. To ease your worries, here’s a list of UTAS websites that you need to be checking regularly.

1: UTAS Webmail utas.edu.au/webmail

Your UTAS email is the primary form of electronic communication between staff and students. University-wide announcements and the Student Services weekly newsletter are both sent to your inbox. It’s a good habit to check your UTAS email consistently to ensure you remain up-to-date, especially as last minute class cancellations are usually announced here. When your password is due for an update, you will also be reminded through your UTAS email.

2: MyLO mylo.utas.edu.au

MyLO (My Learning Online) is where virtually anything related to your units is located. This is where you find lecture recordings, lecture slides, required readings and quizzes. Most units require assignments to be submitted through MyLO. More often than not, signing up for tutorials is done on this site as well.

3: UTAS Library utas.edu.au/library

The UTAS Library website is a valuable resource, especially when it comes to assessments. It boasts a large collection of journals, papers, articles and other content that may otherwise be restricted outside of the university. The Library also archives previous exam papers, that can be incredibly useful for revision.

4: eStudent estudent.utas.edu.au

While you don’t need to check eStudent every week, it’s still something that you need to check during specific periods throughout the year. Your exam timetable and unit results will be released through eStudent. You can find the HECS-HELP Loan form on this website as well as request your academic transcript too.
