If you currently have a WebAdvisor account and cannot log into your student email, please follow these steps to activate your email account.

  1. First, open the WebAdvisor home page and select:

    Even though you already have a WebAdvisor account, you will need to refresh and synchronize your account to update the system. Please select: Sign up for WebAdvisor access (It's FREE!).

  2. Select “Create your Ohlone Account” from the next page.

  3. Enter your Ohlone Student ID number in the ID Box, followed by your first and last name, birthday, and zip code. The ID number must be 7 digits. Don’t forget the leading zero. The information must match exactly what you entered on your application. This information is required for your protection to confirm your identity.

    If your entry does not match our records, you will get the message below in red.

    If you receive this “invalid data” error, the most common cause is an incorrect zip code. If you have moved since applying to Ohlone please try your old zip code. If your name has changed do the same. If you still cannot proceed, follow the instructions below:

    THERE WAS AN ERROR WHILE COMPLETING YOUR REQUEST:

    “Invalid Data: The information you have entered does not match your student record. To protect your privacy, the information you enter must be identical to your student record. You may try to enter your information again by clicking here.
    If you receive the invalid data error message again, please contact the Office of Admissions and Records by e-mail or by phone at 510-659-6100. Please provide your student ID number, first and last name, birthdate, and zip code so Admissions and Records staff can compare that information to your student record. Thank you”

    On the next page, answer the security question you created when you signed up. It is case sensitive. If you do not remember the answer to your question, it can be reset by IT Services and you can create a new one.

    The next page is “Set Password.” Read the Password Policy and make sure you follow the instructions exactly.
