What to expect when you leave CU Boulder
When your employment or contract ends, OIT will send a message to your CU Boulder email account specifying when you'll lose access to Microsoft services; you should expect to lose Google access at the same time.
if you don't have an ongoing role at CU Boulder that entitles you to IT services, then you'll ultimately lose access to all campus-provided services.
In general, you can typically expect service changes to occur on the following timelines.
- Within a few days: You'll lose access departmental IT services (e.g., UCB Files, SharePoint and Teams sites)
- After 30 days: You'll lose access to campus-provided Microsoft and Google services. OIT will permanently delete your email account and your Microsoft OneDrive and Google Drive files.
What to do before you lose access
For recommended actions, refer to the webpage for your former role:
What to expect if you come back
Your experience will differ depending on whether you regain eligibility before or after your data is deleted.
If you return before your data is deleted
If you regain eligibility before the date specified in OIT's email about changes to your Microsoft services, you will not receive additional communications about your IT service eligibility.
If your new role is different than your old one, you'll need to compare the lists of eligible services to determine which, if any, will be lost:
All IT services that you're entitled to in your new role will remain active. However, if your email or cloud storage capacity is reduced in your new role, any services that exceed the new storage quota will be read-only.
If you return after your data is deleted
If you regain eligibility after the date specified in OIT's email about changes to your Microsoft services, you should expect your previous IT services to have been deactivated and your data deleted.
When you're onboarded into your new role, OIT will reactivate services and provision new accounts as needed.
