Forward Your KU Email

A KU email account is automatically created for you after you are admitted as a non-degree seeking student and once you have set up your KU Online ID. Important information will be sent to your KU email account, such as tuition bills and payment deadlines. To ensure you don't miss any valuable communications, regularly check your KU email or forward it to a personal (non-school) email account that you check frequently, such as Gmail or Outlook.
