What has changed?
As of June 1, 2024, all Knights accounts, including access to Microsoft 365 apps (Word, Excel, Outlook, OneDrive, etc.), have been disabled. There is no option to purchase additional years or extend access beyond this date.
Any email forwarding that was set up prior to your account closure will remain in effect and will be disabled on October 1, 2024. Once disabled, any email sent to your Knights email account will bounce.
Why the change?
UCF has historically offered Knights accounts to former students and alumni as a courtesy without expiration. However, to remain in compliance with evolving technology standards, and to prevent unforeseen costs associated with Microsoft’s new data storage charges for Education customers, UCF will now limit University-issued Microsoft accounts to the following groups: admitted or currently enrolled students, faculty, support staff, and administrators.
