How to create an alumni email address
Set up an alumni email account using the Alumni ID you received in a letter from the Alumni Association.
Before You Begin
To set up an alumni email address, you must have an Alumni ID. Your Alumni ID is a string of 9 capital letters above your name on your alumni magazine label (or the label on most Alumni Association mailings). See (Figure 1) for an example.
If you are unable to determine your Alumni ID, contact the Alumni Association at 1-800-366-4478 or alumni@illinoisstate.edu.
