<p>Hello~
ok so I just activated my email account but i really don't like it... i heard <a href="mailto:firstname.lastname@usc.edu">firstname.lastname@usc.edu</a> still works, but is there any way to change it permanently?</p>
<p>You don’t need to change anything. Both emails work. I don’t dig how my USC email looks like, so I just use the [first name].[last name]@usc.edu instead. No one needs to know about your other email.</p>
<p>Since USC assigns that short version of your email address to you, no, you cannot change it. If it really bugs you, just keep on using the firstname.lastname version.</p>
<p>haha thanks</p>
