titleUser account is not valid

  • The user ID of the University of Tartu's computer network is valid as long as the person's connection with the University of Tartu is maintained.

  • The student receives a user ID for one year. It is automatically extended at the beginning of each new academic year, if the student's personal data in the study information system of the University of Tartu shows that he is studying.

  • If the student loses active connection with the University of Tartu (he graduates from the university, is exmatriculated or interrupts his studies), his user ID becomes invalid.

  • You can find more detailed information in the guide: User account validity.
