14119_GMail_yFile_r1York University undergraduate students are reminded that the University is moving its @yorku.ca undergraduate email accounts to a York U service powered by Google’s web-based suite of services and collaboration tools known as Google Apps. The new Google Apps at York includes:

  • email
  • calendaring
  • file storage and sharing
  • Google docs and more.
York University Undergraduates can sign up for their Google Apps account at any time prior to April 1. When they do, their Google Apps at York account will be created immediately and the email content from the existing @yorku.ca account will be moved automatically on April 28.An important note to students: If you do not sign up prior to April 1, your Google Apps at York will be created on April 28, but the email content in your existing @yorku.ca account will not be moved automatically. After your account has been created, instructions will be available for you to manually move your email content.
