What is a GatorLink account and what do I need it for?
GatorLink is the credential used for access to most campus systems, including the myUFL Portal, wireless and local networks. Every current student, faculty and employee must have a GatorLink username and password. Certain affiliate groups are also eligible for GatorLink. To use GatorLink, you must agree to UF Acceptable Use Policies.
GatorLink provides a short username@ufl.edu e-mail address. Official university communications are sent to students at this email address. Faculty, employees and students may use this mailbox or may elect to forward mail sent to this address to a different service (students may only forward to a campus email service). Services offered to all current faculty, staff and students, include the mailbox, web space and charged services.
