Your Username
Your username is the same for all Bucks systems. It's made up of your last name and first initial and in many cases the second letter of your first name or a string of numbers to make it unique. Examples: John Doe - doejo; Jane Smith - smithj83617; Joseph Rodriguez - rodriguezj24877
In most systems you will use your email address which is username@live.bucks.edu to login.
NOTE: If you forget your username, you can retrieve it by using our Find Your Username Form. Enter either your social security number or your student ID number and your last name, then click Submit.
Your Password
Your password expires every 180 days and will require you to change it within that timeframe.
- Please go to the Bucks Identity Page
- Click the Forgot Password link
- Enter your Bucks email address - username@live.bucks.edu - the system uses your live.bucks account to match to your personal email and sends the link to that personal email - it will provide a hint that shows which email it is using. Unless you changed it, your personal email is the one you used when you applied to the college or reactivated your account
- Click the email button on the Select Authentication Factor Screen - after you click the button it will show the hint mentioned in Step 3.
- Open the personal email account
- Click on the reset password link in the email you received from OneLogin
- Set your password using the following rules:
- at least 8 characters
- at least one upper case letter
- at least one lower case letter
- at least one number
- at least one special character
- no more than 128 characters
- Common words and names are not permitted to be used as passwords.
- Do not use anything related to your name or birthday
- You cannot re-use any of the last five passwords previously used.
A good way to come up with strong passwords is to use a phrase or song lyric and take the first letter from each word. For example, "Will you still feed me when I'm 64?" would become "Wysfmwi64?" If you don't remember your personal email please contact the Help Desk - helpdesk@bucks.edu or 215-968-8191.
