Computing Account Expiration Information

05/16/08

If you are a student who is graduating or permanently leaving the college for other reasons, most of your IC computing accounts will expire shortly after you graduate (or leave).

Email, Novell (Nova) and WebCT accounts will expire approximately 90 days after the end of the semester, around August 18th, 2008. WebCT course access may end sooner if your instructor un-enrolls you from a course.

To ensure that none of your important files are lost, make sure you do the following before August 18th:

• Forward any messages in your IC email account to another email account
• Copy your Nova files to your computer hard drive or to a flash drive
• If your Nova folder contains webpages in your public_html folder, upload them to a different Web server account
• if you have an ePortfolio, log into Web Profile Manager and opt-in to the Alumni ePortfolio option once you have received the email expiration notice

If you don’t need to keep any information from your IC accounts, then no action is required; any data in your accounts will be deleted when the accounts are removed from the system.

Graduating students can register for the alumni online community. Once registered, you can keep your address information updated, get free e-mail forwarding, add class notes, search the online directory and more.
