Additional Information

ALUMNI INFORMATION:
From the alumni page: The tangible proof of your alumni status is your Alumni ID card. This card grants you reference privileges at all University libraries, with borrowing privileges available at an additional charge from the library cashier. The card can also be presented at the Field House to arrange access (at an annual charge) to any of the athletic facilities. To obtain your Alumni ID, stop by the Alumni Association with your driver's license or other photo identification and a card will be prepared on the spot. You can also mail or fax a copy of your driver's license along with a note requesting an Alumni ID to the Alumni Association and your card will be mailed to you. http://www.uchicago.edu/alumni/alumni_id_request/

Other alumni information can be found at http://alumniandfriends.uchicago.edu/site/c.mjJXJ7MLIsE/b.4756459/k.CBAE/Alumni_Association.htm.

ATHLETIC FACILITIES
Privileges at the athletic facilities end on the date of your graduation. There may be a day- or two-lag time. Your alumni ID card can be presented at the Field House to arrange access (at an annual charge) to any of the athletic facilities.

EMAIL
You will maintain your @uchicago.edu addresses; ITS email accounts will be closed two quarters after graduation, but the @uchicago.edu email address will continue to work if it is forwarded to an off-campus email provider.  See more information at https://itservices.uchicago.edu/services/alumni-email-forwarding.

HARRIS LOCKERS
If you have a locker, please make sure it is cleaned out and the lock removed by Friday, July 27.  After that time, all locks will be cut and contents thrown away.

HARRIS MAIL FOLDERS
Please make sure you remove any items you want from your mail folder by Friday, July 27.  Anything left in the folder, after that date, will be thrown out. 

HARRIS LOG-IN/PRINTING
Graduating students will continue to have access to the Student Computer Lab through the summer until September 15.  Your printing quota remains as it has been and you will be able to add credit if you like. Graduating students will continue to have access to the Harris School web site on the same basis as described above; however, your affiliation will change to “Alumni”.

Please don’t hesitate to contact Bevis or HSIT in general (at hsit@uchicago.edu) about any of the above or any other questions you may have.

INSURANCE
If you paid for the Student Accident and Sickness Insurance coverage (U-SHIP) for all three quarters this year (F/W/S), and have not lost eligibility (e.g., restricted status, leave of absence, etc), you will be covered through the summer, at no additional cost, until August 31st. You do not have to do anything - this is automatic.

If you or a dependent started on the plan after Autumn Quarter, you will be enrolled in the insurance and billed for Summer Quarter unless you already arranged to not be covered during the summer.

If you have specific questions about your medical coverage through August 31st, you can contact:

Insurance Coordinators, UnitedHealthcare StudentResources
phone: (773) 834-4543/ fax: (773) 834-4544; E-mail: uchicagoadvocates@uhcsr.com.

Continuation coverage, for 90 days after August 31st, or expiring date is available. Complete this form: https://www.uhcsr.com/uhcsrBrochures/Public/EnrollmentCards/2012-451-1-Cont%20EC-v2.pdf and submit with a check or money order for the premium. Information is on the form.

Insurance can also be purchased through the Alumni Association. Please visit: http://meyerandassoc.com/uchicago/health_insurance_index.htm
