OSU email for the newly admitted

<p>My son has been admitted for the class of 2016. He went on to set up his email and it is supposed to be delivered to his yahoo account. He was given the option to do that. I don’t think he has gotten anything yet so it is hard to tell if it worked.</p>

<p>Has anyone newly admitted done this step yet?</p>

<p>I sent a “test” to my D OSU email to make sure it forwarded okay and it did. Try that to make sure your S works.</p>

<p>OSU recommends you don’t redirect it, it may work most of the time but there might be a few times where it doesn’t.</p>

<p>Yeah, I have mine forward to my gmail acct. I sent an email to osu through the osu email account, and i did receive the reply in both my osu email and my gmail</p>

<p>Just my personal opinion, but have your son/daughter get in the habit of logging on to the OSU site. They will need to be on there anyway on a daily basis as a student.</p>

<p>My son actually got his first email from his OSU account and it was a crime alert. So it was good and bad. Glad it works and they get the word out, bad-they have to get the word out. :-)</p>
