<p>Hey, I registered for my SUNet ID, but does anyone know if we can set up our email accounts? if so, how?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Do you get your SUNet IDs if you send the acceptance of admission card? Or do all SCEA admits get a chance to register??</p>
<p>All EA acceptees get the SUNet IDs (or at least I did and I haven't sent in the acceptance card), but I don't think you can actually use the email address or anything until you send in the acceptance card and the deposit.</p>
<p>Yeah, I think everybody, regardless if they sent the card, will get the letter with a code to create an ID, but you will only be able to have email access with your ID after they receive your deposit.</p>
<p>yeah i think turtle is right.</p>

<p>when did you guys get the letter to register email? was it in the acceptance packet or was it separate?</p>
<p>It was mailed separately. I got it Friday I think, and I live in Alaska. It was a letter from the Office of Financial Aid. It's not for registering "email" but for getting a SUNet</a> ID, which will give you email access after you've paid the $160 deposit.</p>
<p>what are you guys using as your id - which, if you choose to go to stanford, becomes your email address - something like, <a href="mailto:jdoe@">jdoe@</a>..., or <a href="mailto:johndoe@">johndoe@</a>..., or <a href="mailto:jdoe125@">jdoe125@</a>... (like, numbers in your birthday) or <a href="mailto:jdoe2009@">jdoe2009@</a>... (graduation) or anything else? in fact, does anyone know what stanford kids usually have?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure Stanford people usually have first initial + last name, or first and middle initials + last name. Do some searches on Stanford Who and see what kinds of usernames pop up. As for me, I just did my last name.</p>
<p>lucky me that my whole name is 8 letters =)</p>
<p>yeah i just did my initials. turtle, do you know if we can set up email aliases to our actual account?</p>
<p>the sunet letter says you can use your sunet id for email "after may 15th"</p>
<p>can anyone confirm that they have paid their deposit and are able to use email already?</p>
<p>Bri told me that he could use his email already, and he was able to set up aliases (after having his deposit check cashed).</p>
<p>thanks turtle. did you send the prez scholar stuff already? i scrambled like mad to get it done--but at least it's out the door!</p>
<p>do you know how many aliases you can set up?</p>
<p>someone: Yeah, I'm so glad that's all over. I finished it Monday night since my counselor wanted to mail everything Tuesday. I ended up editing my Stanford long essay (11b) into an essay with a picture. Kind of contrived though, since I didn't know anything about the person who influenced me until two days ago.</p>
<p>Not sure about the aliases. I haven't sent in my check yet, so I can't check.</p>
