Activate Your Account & Log In

If you have never used Blackboard before, you will need to obtain a UF net account. To obtain a UF net account, please contact ITS at x-4660. Once you have received your account information and changed your IT temporary password, click the "UF Online" link to enter your username and password.

The first screen you see after you log in is called the "My UF Online" page. From this page you can navigate to all of the different areas of Blackboard. The "My UF Online" tab is visible from every screen. Clicking on it will take you to this first screen if you ever find yourself lost in the software.

The "My UF Online" Tab": Clicking on the "My UF Online" tab will always take you to the home screen of the "My UF Online" page.
