How to set up your alumnae email address and move your emails and files over before August 1 deactivation of student accounts

 

Reminder to all May 2024, Feb 2024 and October 2023 grads: your gBear email and drive will be deactivated on August 1, 2024

Before that happens, be sure to move your emails and files over to another account, such as your Barnard alumnae email account!  Best practice is to do this well in advance (e.g. now) and to do it on a weekday during buisness hours so that you can contact BCIT if you encounter any technical issues.

Barnard's lifetime alumnae email service is powered by Google and available exclusively to Barnard alumnae. It offers alumnae the opportunity to have their own Barnard-branded email address (@alum.barnard.edu) and inbox. The service is separate from the College's gBear platform, but includes Mail, Calendar, Drive, and other core Google (G Suite) applications.

Activate your account:

Please visit Barnard Communities to request your Barnard Alumnae Email be activated.

 

Move your emails and files:

Follow these directions to transfer everything to your new account once activated -- do this well before your gBear account is deactivated in early January 2025:
