Information for Graduating HLS Students

Post Graduation Account Expiration

If you are a student, access to iCommons, e-mail, dial-up, printing, and community restricted web sites expires at 12:01 am (EST) on July 31 of your year of graduation. ITS can only extend your access for one of two reasons:

1. You have been accepted at HLS for further studies and can provide a copy of your new ID card, or your new end date can be verified in the University student database.

2. You have been accepted at HLS as staff and can provide a copy of your new ID card, or your new end date can be verified in the University employee database.

You will receive weekly e-mail warnings of a pending account expiration and deletion starting four weeks before the expiration date. If you believe that the expiration date is incorrect, you must contact the Registrar's Office (students), Human Resources (staff), or Office of Academic Affairs (faculty) to have it changed. Expiration dates are calculated based on data received from these offices. If you ignore the warnings and your account is deleted, ITS cannot guarantee that your account can be re-created with the same username or that your data can be restored.
