E-mail Communication Policy
The university reserves the right to send official communications to students by e-mail with the full expectation that students will receive and read these messages in a timely fashion. Official university e-mail accounts are available for all registered students. Official university communications will be sent to students’ official university e-mail addresses. For IU Bloomington, this is the @indiana.edu address.
You are expected to check your e-mail on a frequent and consistent basis in order to stay current with university-related communications. In addition to monitoring your university e-mail account, you may want to check for course-related e-mail within Oncourse. The same user ID and password are used for Oncourse and the university e-mail system. For more information about Oncourse, visit oncourse.iu.edu.
If you choose to have your e-mail forwarded from your official university e-mail address to another address, you do so at your own risk. The university is not responsible for any issues that may impact the proper or timely transmission of--or access to--e-mail forwarded to any other address. Any such problems will not absolve you of your responsibility to know and comply with the content of official communications sent to your official IU e-mail address. Instructions on setting up or cancelling the forwarding of e-mail are available at itaccounts.iu.edu.
