Your student email serves as the official communication channel between you and the campus. All academic announcements, fee reminders, important dates, and opportunities (like scholarships, internships, or events) will be delivered to this email account. As such, it is your responsibility to check it regularly to ensure you remain informed and responsive throughout your studies.

What You’ll Receive as a Student

What You’ll Receive as a Student

These tools are made available to support your assignments, group projects, presentations, and virtual meetings, providing you with an integrated, cloud-enabled academic experience. Upon enrolment, you’ll receive the following tools:

Taylor's Email Address

A unique Taylor’s email address, typically based on your Student ID (e.g. 033456@sd.taylors.edu.my).

Temporary Password

It will be sent to your personal email address registered in our Campus Management System (CMS).

Full access to Microsoft 365 Tools

Access Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), Outlook, Teams, and 1TB OneDrive storage across devices. Install on up to five PCs/Macs plus mobile.

First-Time Access and Setup

First-Time Access and Setup

When you first receive your login credentials, you will need to change your password immediately to protect your account. To do so:

  1. Sign in to your Taylor’s email via outlook.taylors.edu.my, which redirects to the Microsoft 365 login page.
  2. Use your assigned email and temporary password to log in.
  3. Once signed in, click on your profile icon in the top right corner.
  4. Select ‘My Account’, which leads you to the Microsoft 365 account portal at myaccount.microsoft.com.
  5. Choose the ‘Change Password’ option and follow the prompts.

Once updated, your new password will be used across all Taylor’s systems integrated with Microsoft 365 — including Outlook, OneDrive, Teams, and more.

 

Note: Your email address may vary slightly from the example format. You can verify your actual email through either Taylor’s Mobile App or Campus Central Portal.

Checking and Managing Your Email

Checking and Managing Your Email

Your student email is hosted on Microsoft Outlook. To access it:

  • Use your preferred web browser and go to outlook.taylors.edu.my.
  • Sign in with your Taylor’s email credentials
  • You can also download the Outlook mobile app for convenient access on your smartphone

 

It is strongly recommended that you do not unsubscribe or disable notifications from this email account, as doing so may result in missing essential academic or administrative updates. While you may set up email forwarding to a personal email address, please be aware that Taylor’s will not be responsible for any lost or undelivered messages caused by third-party services. It remains your duty to stay informed of all messages sent to your official account.

Resetting Your Password

Resetting Your Password

If you forget your password or are unable to access your account, you can reset it at any time using the Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) feature. This eliminates the need to contact the ICT Service Desk and helps you regain access quickly and independently. Make sure to set up your authentication methods (e.g., mobile number or recovery email) in advance via the My Account portal to make the password recovery process smoother.

What Happens After Graduation

What Happens After Graduation

Your student email account and Microsoft 365 access will remain active for twelve (12) months after your graduation status is officially recorded. This allows you time to back up important files, export emails, and transition to personal tools or new institutional accounts if applicable.

 

After this period, your account will be permanently deactivated. We strongly recommend that you:

  • Export your emails or forward key correspondence
  • Download files from OneDrive
  • Notify your contacts about alternative email addresses, if necessary

For login problems, password reset issues, or access inquiries, please contact the ICT Service Desk. Support staff are available to assist with:

  • Account lockouts
  • Password recovery (if SSPR is not yet set up)
  • Microsoft 365 installation issues
  • Email delivery errors

Your digital identity as a Taylor’s student is essential for accessing academic tools, submitting assignments, and managing your campus life online. To safeguard your account and ensure only you have access, Taylor’s implements two key security features: Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR)

 

These features are designed to protect your personal information, reduce the risk of unauthorised access, and give you full control over your login credentials — all without needing to rely on ICT support for routine account issues.

What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?

What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?

Audio Gif

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), also referred to as two-factor verification, is a security measure that adds an extra layer of protection to your Taylor’s Office 365 account. Instead of relying solely on your password, MFA requires a second form of verification when logging in — typically via a mobile device.

 

Here’s how it works:

  • When you sign in, you will be prompted to:
  • Enter your Taylor’s Office 365 email and password
  • Verify your identity using a notification sent to the Microsoft Authenticator app on your phone or a verification code sent via SMS or phone call

 

Tip: Even if someone manages to obtain your password, they won’t be able to access your account without your second authentication method.

What is Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR)?

What is Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR)?

The Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) feature empowers you to reset your password or unlock your account anytime without no need to contact the ICT Service Desk.

 

You can use SSPR when:

  • You’ve forgotten your password
  • Your account has been temporarily locked
  • You simply want to update your password securely

 

Once set up, SSPR saves you time and allows you to manage your account independently. We advise you to set up your SSPR recovery options in advance (e.g. phone number, recovery email) to ensure a seamless reset process when needed.

How to Register for MFA and SSPR?

How to Register for MFA and SSPR?

Both MFA and SSPR are activated through a combined one-time registration process. Once completed, you’ll have full access to both features. Ensure you’ve downloaded the Microsoft Authenticator app on your mobile device:

For Apple App Store

For Google Play Store

Step-by-Step Registration:

  • Open your browser and go to: https://aka.ms/MFASetup
  • Sign in using your Taylor’s Office 365 email and password
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your authentication methods

Once completed, you’re protected and can use both MFA and SSPR without additional setup.

 

We’ve also prepared a video to guide you through setting up MFA. Prefer a PDF guide instead? You can access it here.

Taylor’s Print on Demand (P·O·D) service is a campus-wide printing solution that makes it easy to print, copy, and scan documents anywhere on campus. From assignments and posters to lecture notes, the P·O·D system delivers reliable, high-quality results when you need them.

 

With cloud-based printing, USB drive access, and mobile device support, P·O·D offers a smooth, flexible experience tailored to today’s students.

 

Key features include:

  • Print directly from computers in labs or the library
  • Send print jobs wirelessly from your laptop or mobile device
  • Scan and email documents, or save them to cloud storage
  • Print files directly from a USB drive without logging into a computer

The system supports multiple file types (PDF, JPEG, TIFF) and offers both monochrome and colour printing in A4, A3, and large-format sizes.

Complimentary Printing Credit (Entitlement)

Complimentary Printing Credit (Entitlement)

All enrolled students receive an annual complimentary printing entitlement, automatically credited to their P·O·D account on the programme’s commencement date. This entitlement renews each year as long as the student remains actively enrolled in the same programme.

 

The annual credit is as follows:

  • RM10 for CAT/ACCA students
  • RM15 for Intensive English Programme students
  • RM30 for all other undergraduate and postgraduate programmes

 

Example 1: If you enrol in the Cambridge A-Level programme with a commencement date of 10 January 2025, you will receive RM30 on that date. If you're still enrolled in the following year, your next entitlement of RM30 will be credited on 10 January 2026.

 

Example 2: For students starting a Bachelor’s degree on 26 August 2025, the entitlement will be credited on that date and subsequently each year on 26 August.

Top-Up Option

Top-Up Option

Once your complimentary quota is used up, you can top up your balance via the P·O·D Portal:

  1. Log in to the portal and select ‘Top Up’
  2. Enter your valid email address (Taylor’s or personal) and Malaysian mobile number
  3. Choose your desired amount and click 'Top Up Now'
  4. You will be redirected to the iPay88 payment gateway, where you can pay using:

Tips for Using Computer Labs

Tips for Using Computer Labs

Check your timetable before entering

Some labs are reserved for scheduled classes, tutorials, or computer-based exams. Always refer to your personal class timetable or the digital schedule panel outside each lab to avoid disruptions

Save your work to the cloud

Files saved on lab desktops or local drives will be automatically wiped after logout or system reset. Use cloud services like OneDrive or Google Drive, or bring a USB drive to back up your work.

Bring your own headphones

Bring your own headphones If your coursework involves audio (e.g. SPSS video tutorials or Adobe Premiere editing), bring your own wired headphones. Wireless/Bluetooth headphones may not be compatible with all lab machines.

Install fonts or add-ons early

If your project requires custom fonts, plug-ins, or software add-ons (e.g. for Adobe, AutoCAD), install them at the start of your session — if permitted. Always uninstall or log out before leaving.

Use assigned software only

Stick to the pre-installed applications provided in the lab. Do not attempt to install or modify system-level software without permission from the ICT Service Desk.

Report issues promptly

Encountered a faulty printer, software glitch, or hardware problem? Report it immediately to the ICT Service Desk via email or in person at Block A, Level 2.
