Beginning with the Spring 2010 semester, there will be a new student email system in place. This new email system, Outlook Live@edu, offers students a much larger inbox, with optional features such as online storage, as well as collaboration and social networking tools. Students will begin using their new email on January 5, 2010. ** The University faculty and staff email system and email addresses will remain the same: @mailbox.sc.edu. University student email is the only system that is changing.**
What’s changing:
Students will have a new email address: NETWORKUSERNAME@email.sc.edu (substituting the network username). Any email sent to an @mailbox.sc.edu account will be forwarded to the @email.sc.edu account during the Spring 2010 semester. Students will need to change their network username password BEFORE using the new system. This can be done through VIP – Technology tab.
Students can login to their new student email account on January 5th, 2010 by going to www.sc.edu/studentemail .
For students who also work at the University:
Students who also work at the University will retain their @mailbox.sc.edu mail for work and should begin using their Outlook Live@edu account for student correspondence. E-mails sent to @mailbox.sc.edu will NOT be automatically forwarded to your Outlook Live@edu account.
