Student Support
The manuals on this site offer you, as a student, instructions on the use of WUR education systems for your study and courses. Is the answer to your question not listed?
• Consult the manual of the system in question for support options.
• For account-related problems or information about (re)setting your password/WUR Passcode or about the use of Office 365, go to: WUR Support Portal
• Consult the WUR Current Students for information on enrolment, guidance during your study, student counseling, minors and exchange programmes, things to do besides your study, your graduation, and beyond.
Please note! Starting in the academic year 2025–2026, you can use the new student app myWUR for all study and campus information. The myWURtoday app will no longer be available after 1 September. Students will receive an email and a notification in the myWURtoday app once the new app is ready to download. This website will also be updated with a new manual.
