Just graduated? Update your email address on MyCareer
If you're graduating this July, remember to update your default email address in MyCareer to a personal account.
- Sign in to your MyCareer account
- Add your preferred email address to the "Alternative email" box
- Click the blue "Make default" link below the box - and done.
Don't worry, we won't spam you with emails. Updating it means you can keep using our jobs board, book appointments, and sign up for skills events after graduation, without relying on your University email, which closes shortly after you finish your course.
