# Qassim University Blackboard: sign-in link, the app and what to do when sign-in fails

Qassim University Blackboard opens at lms.qu.edu.sa with your university account, in the browser or in the Blackboard app on your phone. This page gathers the official link as QU publishes it, what the university itself says about the account and sign-in, and who fixes a sign-in that fails. tiswa never asks for or stores your sign-in details.

- Sign-in link: lms.qu.edu.sa, with your university account.
- The Blackboard app on the App Store and Google Play: pick QU in it and sign in with the same account.
- Sign-in problems: Contact.

## The QU Blackboard (BB) sign-in link

The official link is [lms.qu.edu.sa](https://lms.qu.edu.sa/), and you sign in with your university account, not a separate Blackboard account. Students also call it BB, or LMS after its address.

## What QU says about the account and signing in

- Qassim University's learning system is Blackboard Learn, with separate student, faculty and staff sign-ins; help goes to support@qu.edu.sa.

## The Blackboard app on your phone

The Blackboard app itself is on the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/id950424861) and [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackboard.android.bbstudent). It works with the university's own Blackboard server: pick QU when it asks for your institution, then sign in with the same university account you use in the browser. Courses, announcements, grades and assignments reach you in it, and the features depend on what the university has switched on.

## When sign-in fails

Your Blackboard account is your university account, so a password comes back from the university, not from Blackboard. At QU that is [Contact](https://www.qu.edu.sa/contact-us/). Check first that the account is active and that the password is the one that opens the rest of the university's systems.

## The rest of QU: portal and email

The same account opens the academic system and university email. Every sign-in link is on the QU systems page.

## For faculty

The same app serves instructors too: course materials, assessments and student follow-up from the phone. The QU systems for faculty and staff: [Faculty directory](https://www.qu.edu.sa/faculty/) and [Injaz (documents)](https://www.qu.edu.sa/dms/).

> A search for "QU Blackboard" lands you on scattered pages, some of them not the university's. Here are the official link, the app and the desk that fixes a problem, every one pointing at the university's own site.

## After you sign in: student prices for QU students

A QU student verifies in tiswa with their university email and opens student prices on devices, software and subscriptions. Every deal is on the QU student page.
