Post-Graduation Information

Graduating students can continue to use their Wake Forest student email account until after Commencement and the next Bar Exam.

Wake Forest will continue to send all official communication (including information about Commencement) to your Wake Forest student email account. If you do not plan to continue using this account, we encourage you to forward your email to an account you check regularly.

All law school graduates are offered the opportunity to register for an alumni email account with an @alumni.wfu.edu email address.

• Registering for a Wake Forest alumni Gmail account

To ensure a smooth transition, we have provided instructions for enabling email forwarding.

• Enabling email forwarding

Important:  Alumni Gmail accounts do not include access to Google Drive and have a 25GB storage limit. 

If you intend to utilize Google Drive or to transfer Google Drive content out of your WFU student account, we recommend creating and using a Google One Account (free or paid) instead of an Alumni account to transfer your content.

• Transferring email and Google Drive files to another Google account
