Accessing and Using Microsoft 365 After Graduation

Summary

Information about accessing Microsoft 365 after graduation and/or absence from WKU.

Body

Issue/Question

How do I access Microsoft 365 after I have graduated and/or am no longer taking classes at WKU? 

Environment

  • TopperMail 
    • Microsoft 365

Resolution

Due to WKU's licensing agreement with Microsoft, only current WKU students will retain Microsoft 365 licenses. Once you have graduated or are no longer taking classes with WKU you will lose access to Microsoft 365 and Microsoft OneDrive storage. You will need to transfer any files from OneDrive to a personal storage account or medium prior to graduation to preserve the data. WKU degree-awarded alumni are granted the TopperMail account for life. This is only an email address and does not contain any Microsoft 365 functionality whatsoever. Students leaving WKU that are not degree-awarded will not be granted their TopperMail accounts and such accounts will be terminated after a time period.
