From Teachers and Students

1. Do I need to use my UP Webmail as my default email address on UVLe?

No. You may use an email address other than your UP Webmail account. Your UP Webmail login name and password are used only during login, only for authentication purposes.

2. I cannot access UVLe from within UP Dilnet. What can I do?

Look at the proxy settings of your browser. Set the exemption to "*.up.edu.ph". Try other websites within UP like www.up.edu.ph, www.upd.edu.ph
