Leaving the University - Students
Will you be employed by the University as faculty or staff once you are no longer a student (either due to withdrawal or graduation)?
As long as you will be converted to faculty or staff immediately upon withdrawal or graduation, or are already working in an employment position that will not end following your withdrawal/graduation, you will continue to be eligible for the same IT services as when you were a student.
If you are unsure whether your employment position will be active immediately, please contact your Human Resources department to verify your appointment start date. If you believe there may be a delay between your end date as a student and your start date as an employee, please go back one step and review the recommendations for "No continuing affiliation" to ensure that you do not lose any data.
It is your responsibility to review all data you may have stored and determine what needs to be backed up or transferred. Once your account and data have been deleted, they are gone forever.
Thank you!
