ARCHIVED: Can I get an IU email address for my family members?

In order to have an Indiana University email address and Network ID, you must be a student, faculty member, or staff member at IU. Therefore, as a rule, being a family member of a student, faculty member, or staff member does not entitle a person to the use of IU computing resources.

An exception to this may arise if a person is involved in some university-sanctioned activity that supports the university mission. In such a case, the person may be eligible for a sponsored IU Affiliate account. This account grants temporary access to IU computing resources. For more, see Sponsor a computing account for an IU affiliate. For any other exceptions, see the policy of the University Information Policy Office (UIPO) on Eligibility to Use Information Technology Resources (IT-03).
