IT account closure

07 June 2024

Once you have finished your studies at UC, your IT account will be closed and you will lose access to associated services. The timeframe for this depends on what you have studied at UC. 

HOW TO APPLY

Once you finish your studies at UC, you retain access to some services for a period of time after your last Official Course End date. After this, your UC IT account is automatically closed - meaning your account is no longer usable for login/access to any system that relies on Active DirectoryLightweight Directory Access Protocol, or MS Entra ID directory services.  You will normally receive a courtesy notification of your account closure one month beforehand.

Your access to the following services will be retained for the listed number of days:

*An extension of building access for postgraduate students must be negotiated directly with the Department. 
 
Account termination

Once your account has been closed, you have a further 30 days before your account is fully terminated, or 270 days if you are a postgraduate thesis student. This means all files, email and any remaining IT-system stored data relating to your account will be deleted.
