Effective January 2018, individuals whose University affiliation has changed may begin a deactivation process for the following services:

Affected IT Services

  • Microsoft 365
  • Google Workspace
  • Zoom
  • Box
  • Qualtrics

Important Notes

  • Service-based deactivation will not impact the NetID Login Service.
  • If you plan to setup an auto-reply (out-of-office message) on your account, it must be configured prior to your deactivation date. When configuring this setting, set the expiration to extend past your deactivation date. Once your account is deleted, the auto-reply will no longer work.
  • The account deactivation timeline is subject to change as the University's license agreements with vendors are subject to change.

Timeline

The timeline below illustrates the deactivation process for an individual who is no longer eligible for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Zoom, Box, or Qualtrics. Please note, the content below is subject to change.

This table outlines access to services based on an individual's University affiliation status.
