Computing Accounts for Alumni

Alumni who did not receive a UMICH uniqname while enrolled at U-M can in some cases still receive one. Request a uniqname from ITS and provide the following information:

  • First and last name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Date of birth
  • Year of first U-M degree
  • If available, your:
    • Alumni ID (10-digit number found on mailing label)
    • UMID (found on your U-M ID card)

Note that the request process can take up to three weeks and will require submitting identity documentation.

Getting Alumni Status

U-M graduates receive alumni status automatically. Graduates who already have a uniqname and MCommunity Directory profile keep these and have their alumni affiliation added to their directory profile.

Former students who have completed at least one semester of a degree-granting program are eligible for alumni status. Former students who did not receive this status automatically can request it by contacting Gift & Records Administration.
