Microsoft and Google have announced that they are phasing out free storage for university customers. To prepare, HUIT has partnered with Schools and units to assess the University’s overall storage needs and is rolling out new default storage limits for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace accounts with some exceptions by school.
- Impacted Schools and units are contacting their affiliates directly to communicate processes to request additional storage or find alternative solutions.
- Google Workspace personal Drive storage limits do not apply to anyone with an active SEAS affiliation.
To maximize storage, we recommend that you periodically review and delete files that are no longer needed.
- Google Workspace users can check and manage their current storage online.
- Microsoft 365 users can follow these instructions for checking and managing their current storage.
If you have questions or need help, you can contact the HUIT Service Desk or your school’s local IT support.
