How to Use Your MyUnisa MyLife Email:
My Unisa MyLife Email is your official student email address at the University of South Africa, and if you are a registered Unisa student, you must use it. Every registered Unisa student receives a free MyLife email account for life. It is not just any email – it is the only email account recognised by Unisa for official correspondence. This means Unisa will send all important information, notices, assignment updates, and exam details exclusively to this account, and if you email the university from your personal Gmail or Yahoo, your email may be ignored.
Your MyLife email is a Microsoft 365 account, which means you also get access to Microsoft apps like Outlook, Teams, Word, and OneDrive. It is hosted by Microsoft Office 365 to give students a reliable and user-friendly service. After you register at Unisa, you need to claim your MyLife account immediately. Your email address will look like this: yourstudentnumber@mylife.unisa.ac.za – for example, 1234567@mylife.unisa.ac.za. You use the same password as your myUnisa login.
To access it, simply go to http://mylife.unisa.ac.za and log in with your student number and password. Note that it can take up to 24 hours for your account to be activated after you claim it. If you are studying through Unisa for the 2027-2028 academic year, make sure you activate and check your My Unisa MyLife Email every day. It is your direct link to MyLife at Unisa.
