Gmail

At UConn, Gmail is the official student email system for all students who matriculated between the 2012 and Spring 2024 semesters. It is part of Google Workspace, a collection of Google applications.

Gmail is available to UConn student accounts created before Spring 2024. All new accounts are created in Outlook. Learn more: https://uconn.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IKB/pages/10726900301

Students receive their email accounts before they start classes at the University. Undergraduate classes beginning in the fall semester will be given access to their account in mid-May, once they have been matriculated into the University. Undergraduates starting in January will have access to their University email account in mid-November. Graduate students are matriculated throughout the year and receive their email accounts at the time of admission.

If students were previously an Early College Experience or Advanced Placement student at UConn, they may already have a Gmail.
