- Access to your SU Google Drive files and @g.syr.edu account will be removed 90 days after the spring term end date (which is usually a few days before graduation).
- There a couple of ways to save your data.
- Migrate it directly to a personal Google account using Google's automated migration service.
- Download the data using Google Takeout (full data export) and then upload it to a personal cloud storage or save on your computer.
Warning: Don't rely on keeping a synced/offline copy of your SU Google Drive in lieu of one of the above methods. Files in Google's own formats like Docs, Sheets, etc., are shortcuts to the files that only exist in Google's Cloud. Only by using Google Takeout, or downloading, will the files be preserved (they are converted to Microsoft Office formats).

- Access to your SU OneDrive account will be lost 12 months after graduation.
- Make sure to disconnect the SU OneDrive account from your personal laptop and save any files before this deadline passes.
- If you added SU OneDrive access to your personal computer and let it redirect your Desktop, Documents and Pictures to the SU OneDrive account, files in these locations on your own computer will be lost when SU removes your OneDrive access.
- If you disconnect the SU OneDrive before the deadline, files in these redirected locations will be removed and you'll see a 'Where are my files' icon. You can double click the icon and redownload the files back to your Desktop, Documents and Pictures. Make sure to do this before the 12-month deadline passes or you will lose access to the files.
- Alternatively, before you disconnect the SU OneDrive, copy or move the files to a temporary location on your computer, i.e., create a folder on the C drive called Temp (C:\Temp). Then disconnect SU OneDrive and move the files back to Desktop, Documents and Pictures after.
