E-mail is the official means for communication at NEIU. The University will send communications to students via official NEIU e-mail accounts only. It is recommended that students check their e-mail regularly as some communications may be time-sensitive. Examples of the types of communication you may receive are:

• Notification of courses that have been cancelled or have had changes in meeting information
• Notification of tuition payment due dates
• Announcement of registration dates
• Communication with your class instructors
• Courtesy and overdue notices for Library materials
• Interlibrary loan service via ILIad to request books and journal articles

Your NEIU E-mail account allows you to:

• Send and retrieve e-mail
• Access the Ronald Williams Library Databases from an off-campus location
• Access Blackboard
• Create a personal web page which can be viewed on the Internet from anywhere in the world
• Store files online within your account
