Leaving the College of Engineering, whether temporarily or permanently, will result in the termination of your CAE account. Note, before your account expires, you will receive warning. Here's how to retain your data:

• Use CAE's simple process to copy your saved files. Refer to our articles for guidance.
• For security, you must use secure file transfer protocol (SFTP) for large file transfers.
• Once your account and SFTP access expire, your files will be deleted from CAE servers. Remember, they're retained briefly post-deletion, so move necessary files beforehand.
• You get a two-week window after account expiration to use FTP. Beyond that, access to CAE resources, including SFTP, ends. Don't wait until the last day to act.
