Student Services

IT, library, e-mail and access

As a fully registered student of the University of Greenwich you have access to a variety of library and IT services.

As a fully registered student of the University of Greenwich you have access to a variety of library and IT services (including access to the libraries on all three campuses, access to online journals, some disk space to store files and an email address) all the time you are studying.

After you have finished your studies with the University you start to lose this access and will be required to return any University property that you have been issued with (iPads, PRS hand-sets, laptops, library books, journals etc.).

When you have successfully completed your studies and this has been recorded officially by the University your IT account will remain active for the following 90 days, to allow you to access resources prior to graduation. This is the time to update your address information (see Addresses, Letters and keeping in touch for more detail), back up files and emails you wish to keep, change email subscriptions that use your Greenwich email address etc. After these 90 days of completing your award your student account will be disabled and you will not be able to access any files or emails that have been left on the system.

Although you will have some IT access after you have completed your studies and will be able to access the libraries for 90 days, your library borrowing rights will stop as soon as the completion has been logged against your record. This means that you will be able to enter the library but will need to return any library books (and property) as soon as possible and will not be able to take out any more books or renew any you still have. Yet as a former student of the University of Greenwich you are able to opt in to continue to use these facilities at a discounted rate (see Alumni and Continued Support for more detail).
