How to Obtain a Rutgers Student Email Address
If you are an
admit coming,
new or
current student (degree or non-degree) you should obtain a Rutgers email address. It is important that you only use a Rutgers email address for correspondence with the University: non-Rutgers email addresses are caught by junk mail filters and your email may be accidentally deleted. For this reason, our mailing lists and default student web pages only use Rutgers email addresses. Two types of Rutgers email addresses and computer accounts are available to students:
Rutgers University Office of Information Technology Email Account [Required]
All current or new students who have confirmed their acceptance ("admit coming" status) should obtain a
University NetID and computer account (with email address of the form
YourNetID (at) .rutgers.edu for New Brunswick campus students). Benefits include:
- Fast online Rutgers Email Account account creation
- Email forwarding to personal or corporate, non-Rutgers email accounts can be enabled via web interface.
- Access to restricted library web resources (electronic journals, databases) with NetID
- Access to course web registration and grade books with NetID at Registrar website
- Email address automatically whitelisted (bypasses university junk mail filter)
- Inclusion of email address in course, mathematical finance program information and news, and internships/jobs mailing lists
- Rutgers University webmail, with webtools junk mail filter
Rutgers University Department of Mathematics Email Account [Optional]
Students enrolled in the MS in Mathematical Finance degree program can also obtain a
Department of Mathematics computer account (with email address of the form
YourName (at)math.rutgers.edu). This account does
not give you access to University-wide services or ensure inclusion in Mathematical Finance program mail lists, but does give access to local services offered by the Department of Mathematics. Benefits include:
- Access to scientific and office software and printers
- Personal web page hosting
- Email address can be whitelisted (bypass university mail filter)
- Department of Mathematics webmail (but no junk mail filter)
- Email forwarding to personal or corporate, non-Rutgers email accounts can be enabled using a ".forward" file (created by Unix command shell only, with no web interface).
- Department of Mathematics wireless internet access
- Inclusion of email address in Mathematics Department announcement mailing lists
Rutgers Alumni Permanent Email Account [Optional]
Mathematical Finance program alumni may visit
Rutgers Alumni Relations, obtain a
permanent Rutgers email address, take advantage of the
benefits offered by Rutgers Alumni Association membership, and ensure contact with the mathematical finance program and career opportunities.
