A BU Login Account is a full-access account that is reserved for registered students.
When you first apply to BU as a Study Abroad applicant, you create a login account type known as a Web Account. A BU Web Account uses your personal email address as a login name. With this type of account, your access to BU services is restricted to the application.
Once you are admitted and enrolled, you must upgrade to the account type known as a BU Login Account. The account type uses a short login name (no email address) and highly secure, Kerberos password. This account type allows much greater access to BU services.
It is important to remember your Kerberos password for the duration of your program.
