Graduates to retain University email accounts

Beginning with spring 2015 graduates, graduating students automatically will retain their My Pitt email mailbox, including all of the contents.

This means they will be able to continue to send and receive email messages from their username@pitt.edu email address, as well as from any email aliases that they created as a student at Pitt. Each graduate’s mailbox storage space still will be 50 GB, and the University’s spam and virus filtering service will continue to protect their email against viruses and junk messages.

However, alumni will not have access to all the computing services they had as students.

For example, they will not have access to files stored on pitt.box.com, and most of the software titles they obtained as students (including Microsoft Office) will expire upon graduation.
