If you use your Evergreen email, notify those you correspond with about the change to your email address. If you have not been forwarding your Evergreen email to an outside address, and you have messages in your Evergreen mailbox that you want to save, we recommend:

While you are an active student at Evergreen, you have access to a [[My Evergreen Account Info|My Evergreen Account]] as a single sign-on for almost all of your Evergreen information technology needs. 
  
*Forward your emails individually from [https://www.evergreen.edu/webmail/home.php Evergreen's Webmail] to an outside address.

You might have many roles on campus. Each role gives you access to specific resources in your account. For example, as an active student, you have access to an Evergreen email address, Canvas, WordPress sites, and network file space. As a student employee, you have access to time sheets and Microsoft Teams.
*For the technologically adventuresome, you can retrieve the entire contents of your Evergreen mailbox by creating an IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) account on your computer. This is neither terribly difficult nor super easy to do. Here is an [[IMAP Overview]].

We are happy to help you manage your email through this transition. Please contact us with any questions - X6231 or [http://rails.evergreen.edu/contact/?site=ac-computing-help&recipient=acadcomphelp&tt=true&subject=Email%20from%20the%20Evergreen%20Login%20Deactivation%20wiki%20Page email].

When you stop attending Evergreen as a student, you are considered "withdrawn". You still have an Evergreen account, but the associated resources may change. After a period of time, your account may be deactivated. We will always have a record of your account, but you would need to re-enroll to "re-activate" the account, or request a Former Student account.  
  
====Evaluations====
+
=== When do student resources go away? ===
Evaluations that you created inside MyEvergreen may be saved as PDFs to your own computer. You may of course print these evals, as well. Narrative evaluations from your faculty and your own self evaluations make up an Evergreen transcript. The Registration Office will always be available to produce [http://www.evergreen.edu/registration/transcript.htm official and unofficial transcripts] for you.
+
When you are no longer enrolled in courses as a student at Evergreen (i.e. you are "withdrawn"), you will eventually lose access to student resources.  
  
====Evergreen Blogs====
+
Your student status may be updated to "withdrawn" if any of the following apply:
 +
*: '''You are admitted to Evergreen but do not attend or successfully complete the first quarter you were admitted'''. Your status is updated between weeks 3 and 5 of the quarter you were admitted.
 +
 
 +
*: '''You successfully completed the term you were admitted but have been gone for 4 or more quarters after that'''. Your status is updated week 3 of the 5th quarter you were not enrolled.
 +
 
 +
*: '''You asked to be withdrawn from Evergreen''' (via Registration and Records' Change of Status form). Your status is updated immediately when Registration and Records receives your form.
 +
 
 +
*: You were attending as a '''non-degree-seeking, non-admitted ("special") student and are no longer registered'''. Your status is updated the week 3 of the first quarter you are not registered.
 +
 
 +
*: '''You completed your degree and graduated from Evergreen'''. Your status is updated when your degree is awarded. If you are withdrawn because you graduated, you have access to student resources approximately one year after your graduation quarter. If you were withdrawn for any other reason, you will lose access to the account and associated resources around weeks 4-5 of the quarter in which you stopped attending.
 +
 
 +
=== Why do we change access and de-activate accounts? ===
 +
Resources are provided to us by the state of Washington so we can help you fulfill your role(s) at Evergreen. When you no longer have a particular role at Evergreen, we can no longer provide state resources for that role.
 +
 
 +
Active but unused accounts put our systems at risk. For this reason, we deactivate accounts after a certain period of time. We know some people enjoy continued use of their Evergreen accounts and want to keep them permanently. We attempt to balance that desire with the need to keep our systems secure by keeping accounts active with access to resources for a period of time after your role at Evergreen changes.
 +
 
 +
===Email===
 +
Be sure to contact anyone who corresponds with you via your evergreen.edu address, and give them a different email address to use. '''All emails will be deleted during the account deactivation process.'''
 +
 
 +
'''If you currently forward your evergreen email''' to another email provider, this will be turned off when the login is deactivated and you will no longer receive emails addressed to your student account.
 +

'''If you have not been forwarding''' your Evergreen email to an outside address, and you have messages that you want to save, we recommend that you forward your emails individually from [https://outlook.office.com/ Evergreen's Webmail] to an outside address.

Account-schield2.svg
It is important to understand when and how your My Evergreen account will be deactivated. This guide explains the status changes, access timeline, and how to prepare for deactivation.

Account Deactivation

While you are an active student at Evergreen, you have access to a My Evergreen Account as a single sign-on for almost all of your Evergreen information technology needs.

You might have many roles on campus. Each role gives you access to specific resources in your account. For example, as an active student, you have access to an Evergreen email address, Canvas, WordPress sites, and network file space. As a student employee, you have access to time sheets and Microsoft Teams.

When you stop attending Evergreen as a student, you are considered "withdrawn". You still have an Evergreen account, but the associated resources may change. After a period of time, your account may be deactivated. We will always have a record of your account, but you would need to re-enroll to "re-activate" the account, or request a Former Student account.

When do student resources go away?

When you are no longer enrolled in courses as a student at Evergreen (i.e. you are "withdrawn"), you will eventually lose access to student resources.

Your student status may be updated to "withdrawn" if any of the following apply:

  • You are admitted to Evergreen but do not attend or successfully complete the first quarter you were admitted. Your status is updated between weeks 3 and 5 of the quarter you were admitted.
  • You successfully completed the term you were admitted but have been gone for 4 or more quarters after that. Your status is updated week 3 of the 5th quarter you were not enrolled.
  • You asked to be withdrawn from Evergreen (via Registration and Records' Change of Status form). Your status is updated immediately when Registration and Records receives your form.
  • You were attending as a non-degree-seeking, non-admitted ("special") student and are no longer registered. Your status is updated the week 3 of the first quarter you are not registered.
  • You completed your degree and graduated from Evergreen. Your status is updated when your degree is awarded. If you are withdrawn because you graduated, you have access to student resources approximately one year after your graduation quarter. If you were withdrawn for any other reason, you will lose access to the account and associated resources around weeks 4-5 of the quarter in which you stopped attending.

Why do we change access and de-activate accounts?

Resources are provided to us by the state of Washington so we can help you fulfill your role(s) at Evergreen. When you no longer have a particular role at Evergreen, we can no longer provide state resources for that role.

Active but unused accounts put our systems at risk. For this reason, we deactivate accounts after a certain period of time. We know some people enjoy continued use of their Evergreen accounts and want to keep them permanently. We attempt to balance that desire with the need to keep our systems secure by keeping accounts active with access to resources for a period of time after your role at Evergreen changes.

Email

Be sure to contact anyone who corresponds with you via your evergreen.edu address, and give them a different email address to use. All emails will be deleted during the account deactivation process.

If you currently forward your evergreen email to another email provider, this will be turned off when the login is deactivated and you will no longer receive emails addressed to your student account.

If you have not been forwarding your Evergreen email to an outside address, and you have messages that you want to save, we recommend that you forward your emails individually from Evergreen's Webmail to an outside address.

Evaluations and Academic Statement

Are your Self-Evaluations Finished? Login to my.evergreen.edu to complete any outstanding self-evaluations. You might also choose to save past evaluations as PDFs to your own computer. Your Academic Statement, narrative evaluations from your faculty and perhaps some of your own self-evaluations are what make up an Evergreen transcript. The Registration Office will always be available to produce official and unofficial transcripts for you.

Web Payment
