Accessing MyEd

Accessing MyEd

The University of Edinburgh’s portal is called MyEd, and you can access many University resources there. To get into MyEd you first need to register with EASE (the University’s centralised authentication service). See the section on Registering with EASE, above.

Logging onto MyEd

  1. Go to https://www.myed.ed.ac.uk/ and bookmark the URL for easy access next time. Then click ‘Login with EASE’.
  2. Enter your Universal Username (UUN) and EASE password. Your UUN is s + matriculation number e.g. s0123456
  3. Click Login and the front page of MyEd will open.

If you have problems logging in, use the links in the ‘Need help?’ column. If problems persist, get help via the Technical Support Team.

Once logged in, you’ll notice some links to tours and other tips for getting started. These are a good resource for getting the most out of MyEd. We would recommend you familiarising yourself with MyEd as early as possible as there are many resources which you will find useful. After logging in with EASE, you’ll be taken straight through to your MyEd home page:

You’ll see various default ‘channels’, which are those framed within the page showing different kinds of information (like widgets). Notice also the tabs along the top: Accounts, Studies, Services, etc. Each one contains different channels. To make MyEd as convenient for you as possible, you may want to customise it so that the channels you use most are in useful locations. MyEd has various ways of enabling you to customise your portal: learn more about this at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wytrgn8ZG0M.
