mailbox and data after they graduated. We could extend this access because Google offered educational institutions free and unlimited storage. This changed in 2022 when Google unilaterally changed their terms and conditions and moved to a fee-based model. This change, in addition to ongoing issues with offering two similar platforms, prompted the University to move Google Workspace services to Microsoft 365. This transition will occur in 2024.
All 2023-24 graduates should move any data stored on the Google Workspace account to personal storage. Google provides a tool for migrating data from your UConn Google account, called Takeout. You can access it by logging into takeout.google.com with your UConn account. Takeout can download the contents of your Google drive to your PC or transfer the data to OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, or another Google drive (e.g., your personal Google account).
You will have the opportunity to set up a “Forward for Life.” This service lets you point a University of Connecticut email address to a personal email account. Any email sent to the address is automatically forwarded to this personal inbox.
