In order to access Google services using a UConn.edu address after UConn’s Google Workspace has closed, you can register for an unmanaged account in Google. This account does not receive email in Gmail, but allows you to access other Google services using a UConn email address.
You cannot create an unmanaged Google account for a UConn email address until the managed account with that address has been deleted.
