I've recently installed the latest version of Ubuntu (64 bit), alongside my Windows 8 dual booted machine. The problem I'm having is trying to connect to my school network, the school uses a username and password system, so upon entering them the top right corner icon attempts to connect to to the network, but after some amount of time either disconnects, or tells me to enter the details again.

On another note, my computer appears to work fine wireless wise when I'm at home (Which only requires password entry and not a username to get on the network). Also, I know this problem has nothing to do with my schools internet because I'm using it at this moment, on Windows 8.

I've tried suggestions from these links, all to no avail:

Ubuntu 14.04 : My computer sees the wireless network, but won't connect to it, keeps asking for the WPA password

Constantly asked for WiFi password and CA certificate

Had a similar issue. In case it is helpful for anyone, for me it was just a matter of changing from TLS to PEAP under the network settings.

If your school has one password for wifi: Click on the intenet connectivity menu (top right corner menu with wifi signal). Click Edit connections. Find your school's network from the list and select. Click edit. Click Wi-Fi Security tab. Set securitty to WPA & WPA2 personal (assuming thats the system your school uses). Enter your password.

If it is the kind where you log onto some service, maybe try fogetting the network and re-connecting to it Click the internet connectivity menu. Click edit connections. Find your school's network from the list and select. Click delete. Wait a minute. Click internet connectivity menu. Find your school's network. Click on it and see if things start working.
