Brandeis Alumni Accounts

Support for Recent Graduates

Graduating students will retain their @brandeis.edu accounts during a seven-month grace period following their degree conferral (for May 2024 graduates this will be January 7, 2025; for August 2024 graduates this will be March 2025 — the exact date will be communicated via email). Once this grace period has ended, your Brandeis Google account, including your email, will be deactivated and messages will bounce back to senders as undeliverable. 

Alumni are invited to register for the My Brandeis Gateway alumni portal. This new online resource allows alumni to update their contact and employment information, search the alumni directory, and submit class notes. The sections that follow provide guidance on how to move your personal data, update contact information, and create new credentials to access online alumni resources.

Please note: Brandeis accounts will be deactivated for graduates who no longer have a student, faculty or staff affiliation. Recent graduates and alums who are current students, faculty or staff, will retain their Brandeis account.

Update Contact Information

Please take the following steps to update your non-Brandeis contact information:

  1. Confirm your home (non-Brandeis) address and contact information (pdf) in Workday.
  2. Add yourself as an authorized party in Nelnet (pdf) using non-Brandeis credentials.

For recent graduates whose degrees were conferred in August: You will need to update your contact information, including a non-Brandeis email, in Workday to receive information about commencement. You will also need to include the name you would like printed on your diploma and the address where your diploma should be mailed. You can find instructions on how to make these updates on the Add Diploma Name and Address Job Aid.

If you have any questions about your @brandeis.edu account, or need any assistance updating your contact information, please contact alumaccounts@brandeis.edu.
