Email changes coming May 31

May 5, 2016

Outlook logoNIU’s Division of Information Technology will begin moving student email Tuesday, May 31, from Gmail to Office 365.

  • The transition could take up to a week. During that time, students will receive email in Gmail until the switch takes place.
  • No email or Google Drive data will be lost, but it will not be migrated automatically. DoIT will provide instructions on how to migrate email and data.
  • O365 email will be accessed through webmail.students.niu.edu, MyNIU or O365.niu.edu.
  • Before the switch, DOIT is looking for answers to some its questions: Students are asked to take an eight-question survey on NIU student email.

More information on the benefits and details of the change is available online.
