Student - How to Update Personal Email

Overview

The personal email on file with the University is what allows students to receive a security code when claiming their account, resetting their password, or configuring their 2FA tokens. Without a reachable email address, students can experience issues with the ITS password portal. This page explains how a student can update their personal email on file with the University.
