Email Forwarding

Email Forwarding has been retired as of November 14, 2019

Former Students who previously opted into Email Forwarding have had their full UCSC Google services restored. For more information, see the Slug G Suite webpage.


Email Forwarding provides former students* a way to continue receiving email through their @ucsc.edu email address throughout their lifetime. If a former student decides to opt-in to use this free service, all messages sent to their @ucsc.edu email address will be redirected to an email address of their choice. This service is for email forwarding only. It is NOT a full email account.

Email Forwarding is available to all former UCSC students who graduated in 2004 or later, and do not have a current campus affiliation. For example, former students who are now employed at UC Santa Cruz can not opt-in to Email Forwarding since they already have a UCSC email account. 

* Current students can set up and manage email forwarding through their Gmail settings.
