Finishing up at the university? Here's what you need to do!

What should I do once I have finished studying at the University?

Your University of Melbourne Student account will be deactivated 12 months after the official date of your course completion or course withdrawal.

This means you will have access to University resources for 12 months.

However, due to University policy regarding Cybersecurity and data retention, your account will not be extended or reactivated beyond this 12 month grace period.
