Graduating Students
Congratulations new (or soon-to-be-new) Alumni of Emory University! Here's what you need to know going forward.
Your Emory Account Access:
Access to all Emory services that require logging in with a netID and password will end upon account deactivation (see timing below). This includes a loss of access to:
- Your Microsoft 365 account, including online and installed applications and files (Emory email, Excel, OneDrive, etc.)
- EmoryUnplugged Wi-Fi and VPN
- Library databases and other online resources
The accounts of former Emory students are deactivated based on graduation date:
- May graduating student accounts begin the deactivation process in mid-September
- August & December graduating student accounts begin the deactivation process in mid-May
Access to your OPUS account will remain to request transcripts. Questions regarding OPUS after your network account is deactivated should be sent to OPUSHELP@listserv.cc.emory.edu.

Immediate Action Steps:
- Back up your files: Access to your Emory OneDrive account will end. Download and save your files elsewhere in an account not tied to your Emory Email address:
- Back up your Emory emails and set up automatic replies within your Emory email account directing anyone who reaches out to your non-Emory contact info.
- Consider current Emory email usage: Update all accounts using your Emory email address as either a contact, a login, or as a backup address (e.g., iCloud, Google backup address, LinkedIn and other career sites, and anywhere else you have used your Emory email address).
- Return equipment, books, storage drives and other library materials. For questions about your access to library materials, contact "Ask A Librarian."
- Remove Clearpass once no longer living on campus: If you lived in the residence halls, you likely have Clearpass installed on your device. Once you have moved off campus with no future plans to return, uninstall ClearPass.

Sponsored Accounts: If you are maintaining an affiliation with an official Emory group or program, you may be eligible for a Sponsored Account. You will need a faculty/staff sponsor to request this limited account on your behalf by following these instructions.
