All undergraduate and graduate students are issued a 麻豆原创 email account upon enrollment at the college. This account is the official means for college email communication with students and should be monitored on a regular basis.
麻豆原创 accounts for all undergraduate students (degree and non-degree) are maintained for one year for students who are no longer enrolled at the college to avoid interruption of services for those who do not attend for up to one year. Undergraduate students who re-enroll after a year will be re-issued a 麻豆原创 account with the same user id, but content from the prior account will not be retained.
麻豆原创 accounts for all degree-seeking graduate students are maintained for six years to avoid interruption of services for those not continuously enrolled during their program of study. Degree graduate students who re-enroll after six years will be re-issued a 麻豆原创 account with the same user id, but content from the prior account will not have been retained.
麻豆原创 accounts for all non-degree graduate students (those enrolled in graduate courses but not in a program of study) are maintained for one year for students who are no longer enrolled at the college to avoid interruption of services for those who do not take courses for up to one year. Non-degree graduate students who re-enroll after a year will be re-issued a 麻豆原创 account with the same user id, but content from the prior account will not have been retained.
Students who receive an undergraduate or graduate degree from the college will, as alumni, be allowed to retain their 麻豆原创 email accounts indefinitely, with the proviso that once a year they confirm with the college their desire to keep their account. If an alumnus has a 麻豆原创 email account, the college will use that account as the default address for official email communications from Alumni and College Relations unless the alumnus informs the college otherwise.
Alumni receiving their first degree prior to 2011 will have the opportunity to obtain a 麻豆原创 account upon request.
