We'll use email frequently throughout the quarter. Every student in the class
must have a Bearcat Online (BOL) account, even if
you already have an email account elsewhere. Please read all of the
instructions on this page before you begin working!
Activating Your Bearcat Online (BOL) Account
-
Launch a web browser. (We use IE here, but other browsers should
also work.)
-
Go to the Bearcat Online web site: email.uc.edu
Note: Please do not precede the web address with www.
-
If you have never activated your BOL account, or if you
can't remember your login information,
click the link
provided.
-
Complete the form that appears on the screen. (You’ll need to click in each of the
text fields before you can begin typing.)
-
When you have typed the correct information in all of the fields, click the
Submit button.
-
An information sheet with details about your account will appear on your screen. Make
sure to print this information and keep it with you! (To print, just pull down the
File menu and choose the Print command.)
Using Your BOL Account
You can read your mail through UC's web-based mail reader at
email.uc.edu.
You can also use a POP client, such as Eudora or Outlook, to read your
mail. Finally, if you already have an email account that you prefer to use this quarter,
you can forward your BOL mail to that
account. Additional information about BOL is available online on the
UCit Email Services page and on the
UCit Documentation page.
Internet Access
As long as you have Internet access, you can access your BOL mail from home. If you
do not yet have an Internet service provider, you can set up a UC Remote Access
account. Information about remote access
is available on the UC web site at
https://www.ucit.uc.edu/online/.
