Student E-mail Accounts
About Your HCC E-mail Account
A personal e-mail account is established for each student of Holy Cross.
The Holy Cross e-mail account is the primary source of communication between the college and the student. All students are to check their e-mail on a regular basis and maintain their account for e-mail delivery. Regularly purging your e-mail boxes of old or out dated e-mail is a must. Warnings are given when your e-mail account is becoming full. When purging your e-mail boxes be sure to empty the Inbox, Sent Items, and Deleted Items boxes to assure that you have sufficient space for messages. Resident students can retrieve their voice mail both from their phone or e-mail Inbox.
Visit the User Name & Password page for details about your on-campus e-mail address, user name and password.
