If you're planning to take the summer off and return to studies this fall, will you still be able to access your UO email account?
The answer is yes! All students who take a term off and then register for classes the following term can continue to use their computing accounts without interruption.
However, if you take more than one consecutive term off before reregistering, expect that your account will be disabled. (Your account gets disabled during the second term in which you've failed to reregister.) This policy also applies to students who are on leave or who are involved in a program that causes them to not show current term credits for more than one term.
What if you graduate? After you graduate, you will normally get one free "vacation term" before your account is deactivated. In addition, the UO Alumni Association now offers a free email alternative. See http://alumni.uoregon.edu/ for more information.
If you have further questions about your UO email account, call Microcomputer Services at 346-4412 or visit the Help Desk in 151 McKenzie Hall weekdays from 9 am to 5 p.m.
