Have you tried to set up a user name and password and are now waiting for a confirmation email? 

For some users their email systems bounce back our system generated emails, so you might never get a confirmation email. Don't worry, just wait a day and then try again, I will manually confirm all those accounts on the back end - BUT I only check once a day (because I have lots of other work to do), so it will just take a little bit of time before you can access your account. Keep trying, and you will be able to get into our Student portal!
