Introduction

Full Exchange Online accounts integrate email, appointments, tasks, contacts, and public folders in one comprehensive location. They are automatically created for everyone with a Hokies ID. However, students must self-provision themselves an Exchange Online mailbox following the instructions provided below.

No one is able to deprovision the mailbox once provisioned. Deprovisioning occurs automatically once all affiliations (student, faculty, or staff) are no longer current.
