Your Username and Password
New students:
Your WebAdvisor username and a temporary password were emailed to you shortly after you applied for admission.
Returning students:
If you need to create a new WebAdvisor password, see "Password" below for details.
Your WebAdvisor login username and password gives you access to these systems:
- - the University's online registration system
- - the library's online resources and your library account
Username
If you have forgotten your username, you can retrieve this on WebAdvisor.
- Go to and click on "Forgot your Username."
- Enter your first name and last name and your alternate (non-U澳门王中王论坛) email address and click submit. (The alternate email address must already be on file with the University.)
- An email will then be sent to you containing your username.
Password
The new password you create must:
- not contain parts of your username
- not contain parts of your first or last name that exceed two consecutive characters
- be between 14-24 characters in length
- not be one of your last three passwords
- contain at least one upper case letter
- contain at least one lower case letter
- contain at least one number
- contain at least one special character from the following list: exclamation mark (!), double quotation mark (“), single quotation mark (‘), number sign (#), dollar sign ($), percent sign (%), star (*), plus (+), hyphen (-), underscore (_), period (.), forward slash (/), caret (^),square open parenthesis ([), square closed parenthesis (]), open parenthesis [(] or closed parenthesis [)]
If your password does not meet this requirement, WebAdvisor will not allow you to update your password.
If you have forgotten your password, use the re-set option:
- Go to and select “Forgot your Password.”
- Enter your username and alternate email address that we have on file for you and click submit.
- An email will then be sent to you with a link to create a new password in WebAdvisor.
Please note: Password information can only be sent to an alternate email address already on file with the University. It cannot be given over the phone or sent to an email address that we do not have on file. If we do not have an alternate email address on file, you can complete a Personal Update form - see Forms - and fax it to 204.783.4996 or email it to studentcentral@uwinnipeg.ca Alternatively, show a Student Central staff member your photo ID during a Zoom drop in.
