What are the consequences of changing my username?
If you would like to have your username changed, you should be aware of some consequences: • If you have a Google Apps for Employees email account (@boisestate.ed) or a student BroncoMail account (@u.boisestate.edu) you will start a fresh account and will not have access to your old email. All emails, contacts, and calendar items will be lost. • You will have sole responsibility of notifying contacts of your new address. • If you are a faculty member that uses the Blackboard system, you will also need to manually update your Blackboard user profile to include your new email address. • In addition, if you are subscribed to any BSU listservs (mailing lists), you must unsubscribe with your original email address before your username change occurs, and then re-subscribe with your new email address after the change. Listserv subscription information can be found on our Listserv page. Of course, the OIT Help Desk is available for any questions you may have about the Account Request process.
