I am an alumnus who graduated more than one year ago. How do I access a GSU email account?
Student email accounts are not disabled until the student has been gone for at least one (1) year. Specifically, if a student has enrolled in classes in any of the three prior semesters, their email account remains intact. If a student has not utilized their email address after one year, their email address is disabled. To reactivate the email address contact the University Information Services to re-establish your GSU email account.
