Knights Email: How to Access UCF Email 2023

All UCF students use Knights Email as their primary email service. Although Microsoft hosts and powers the email system, UCF retains control over the accounts. Knights Email is used for all official messages from the university. The UCF students-only edition of Microsoft Outlook Live serves as the email system for the knights. It offers a selection of cost-free hosted communication and collaboration services to UCF students. See the information below for more details on how to access UCF Email:

The best way to access your Knights email account

Open knightsemail.ucf.edu in your browser
Simply click Knights Account Login.
Use your email address and password to log in.
You will need to reset your password if you can’t remember it.

Creating Your Knights Email Account

Select the Knights email link after logging in to the myUCF site. To create your new Knights email address, click the “Create Account” button once the page has loaded.
Choose Knights Email from the myUCF menu.
Please choose Create Account Type and enter the desired Knights Email account name when the Knights Email page loads. Select a suitable account name because this will be your official UCF email address that you will use to contact your teachers.
Choose a different email from the drop-down menu.
Two confirmation emails will be sent to the alternative email address you supplied after the request to create your account has been submitted. The first one has the name of your Knights account, and the second one contains the temporary password for your Knights Email account.
A confirmation email for your email address will be sent when your account is created, and a confirmation email for your password will be issued when your account is ready for you to log in.

Your Knights Password Reset

Enter your NID and NID password to log into your myUCF account at my.ucf.edu.
Make sure there is a non-UCF and non-Knights Email address in the Personal line under the myUCF menu by selecting Student Self Service, Personal Information, then Email Addresses. In such case, click Save after adding your personal email to that line.
Following that, select “Knights Email” from the left-hand column. You will be taken to the knightsemail.ucf.edu website when you click that link.
Then select “Reset Password.”
Choose the email address to which you want the password sent.
