Step 1: Receiving a new Office 365 Alumni e-mail account

Office 365 is the latest e-mail service from Microsoft, and it has arrived at TAMUK. This is available for all students who graduate from Texas A&M University - Kingsville.

To receive a new Office 365 alumni e-mail account, upon applying for graduation, an alumni e-mail account is created and available for students.  The students e-mail will still be available for one semester after graduation, but will be disabled afterwards.  The alumni e-mail will resemble the student e-mail exactly, where the firstname.lastname will stay the same. (Note: some students have middle initials in their e-mail or first names, they will also match when an alumni e-mail is created)  The ending of the e-mail is what will change from @students.tamuk.edu to @alumni.tamuk.edu.

Step 2: Activating your new Office 365 Alumni e-mail account

To activate your alumni e-mail account, login to outlook.com/alumni.tamuk.edu.  Enter your e-mail address as your firstname.lastname@alumni.tamuk.edu.  The password will be K00######a (The K is capital) by default.
