New Student Account & Email Activation

If you are an accepted student at Alfred University you are eligible to access the University's computer network and receive a free email account on the AU server.

Accepted students will be notified what their alfred account is from admissions. If you are still unsure of what your Alfred email is please contact the ITS Help Desk at 607-871-2222 or at helpdesk@alfred.edu

What can you do with a network account?

  • A network account allows you to access AU library databases from off-campus
  • A network account allows you to log onto the public access computers in the computer labs and print from these computers. Without a network account you will be unable to use the printers in the open computer labs.

Why do you need an Alfred University Email Address?

Electronic mail is the official means of campus-wide communication. All students, faculty, and staff are required to read and monitor their Alfred University e-mail account.
