The University of Kentucky Information Technology created the term "link blue" to define a directory account (user id and password) which can be used when connecting to many campus-wide systems.
Anywhere you see the link blue phrase or logo you can login with the same user id and password, just as you know anywhere you see a VISA® or MasterCard® logo you know those cards are accepted.
Your link blue account is created within a business day of when, as a student you are accepted, or as an employee you are entered into payroll. For further information regarding link blue accounts, visit the Account Services Site.
