Student Computing

Overview

Every School of Nursing student is required to have their own personal computer or mobile device. Please review the IT Orientation Presentation. As an RBHS student, your NetID is your universal Rutgers login to access all electronic resources, including the following accounts.

CORE/Computer Lab Login

This gives you access to our University Network. It allows printing in the lab and classrooms, and is used to log in to the lab computers as well as the Rutgers wireless network (RUHealthSciences).

Portal

my.rutgers.edu is the university intranet used to access all applications like your personal information, student records, online registration, email, and university announcements, among others.

Email

Your Rutgers email account is an official means of communication between the University and you, the school and you, and the faculty and you. You are responsible for knowing about and responding to anything sent to your Rutgers email account.

When communicating with SON faculty and staff, use your Rutgers email account. Faculty and staff are not required to respond to emails from any other email address. In most cases, that email will simply be deleted. Do not create an alias email.

Access your email at connect.rutgers.edu. Your email address will be YourNetID@sn.rutgers.edu. Messages will be deleted once they are 45 days old, unless you create a folder and move your messages there.
