Initial Offboarding

Unlink your student email address

Your University of Melbourne student email address will be disabled following a 12-month grace period.

Therefore, you will not be able to access or use this address for any third-party authentication purposes after this period.

What you need to do

The University suggests to never use your student email address for any third-party personal login or authentication purposes, including social media platforms or banking accounts.

  1. Remove student email from subscriptions and logins

    Proactively remove your student email address from any links, subscriptions, or logins you may have set up, and make other arrangements while you still have access to your student account to complete these processes.

  2. Subscribe to mailing list with a different email address

    Link your personal email address or newly formed alumni account address to any mailing lists you may wish to remain subscribed to after you have left the university.

Set up auto-replies in Gmail

Your University of Melbourne student email address will be disabled following a 12-month grace period.

Therefore, you should arrange an auto-reply response during this period to assist in making your transition away from the University more seamless.

What you need to do

  1. Set up vacation reply in Gmail (recommended)

  2. Set up email forwarding (optional)

Please be aware that once your account is fully disabled, any auto-replies or forwarding rules will cease to function, which is why it is encouraged to set up an alternate destination address early to avoid any miscommunication with potential senders/recipients.
