Navigating Access Challenges and Support Solutions
⚠️ Forgot Password
Cause: You cannot recall your login password for your La Ruche account.
Solution: If you forget your password, look for the 'Change your password' or 'Mot de passe oublié' link on the login page. Clicking this will guide you through the process to reset your credentials.
⚠️ Access Denied to Specific Mandates
Cause: Upon clicking on certain internship offers, you receive a message stating 'vous n'avez pas accès à ce mandat accès refusé par le contrôle de sécurité de la page' (access denied by the page's security control).
Solution: This often occurs because some mandates are posted for a specific student to accept, or you may not meet the eligibility criteria (e.g., sufficient credits). If you found an internship independently and inform Polytechnique, an offer may be created on the platform accessible only to you.
