<p>see above question.</p>
<p>Once you send in your matriculant fee, allow for 3 - 5 business days (it took longer for me, though) and check the e-password site (<a href="http://www.vanderbilt.edu/password/)%5B/url%5D">http://www.vanderbilt.edu/password/)</a>. Once you get your username and e-password you have access to the VU site and you automatically get your email address. Just log in with the username and e-password you previously set up (<a href="https://vuwebmail.vanderbilt.edu/horde/%5B/url%5D">https://vuwebmail.vanderbilt.edu/horde/</a>)</p>
<p>I set my fee and got something in the mail. just saying welcome and how glad they were to have me decide on going to vandy. No password there though.</p>
<p>i believe, based on what my S told me, that you can go onto the log in page and put in your social security number, which it will recognize if you have paid your deposit. Then it willask you to create a password etc.</p>
<p>I think if it's been a couple of days since you sent in your matriculation fee, it's a safe bet that you can register for your VUnetID at this site: <a href="https://vunetid.vanderbilt.edu/epassword/%5B/url%5D">https://vunetid.vanderbilt.edu/epassword/</a></p>
<p>Strange, though, when I matriculated, they sent you a code first, which which you can could your VUnetID. It also had the double purpose of serving as a receipt of sorts.</p>
<p>ah, thanks guys. :)</p>
<p>Oh man, I hate my e-mail. It's <a href="mailto:firstname.middleinitial.lastname@vanderbilt.edu">firstname.middleinitial.lastname@vanderbilt.edu</a></p>
<p>It's so long!</p>
<p>although that's your official main email address, you can make (2?) more sub email addresses which you can name.</p>
<p>really!? I may look into that, thanks!</p>
<p>How do you make a sub email address?</p>
<p>Here's how you make an alternate email address:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>return to the vunetid site (<a href="https://vunetid.vanderbilt.edu/epassword/)%5B/url%5D">https://vunetid.vanderbilt.edu/epassword/)</a>. </p></li>
<li><p>Click the last option: "Configure Your VUnet Services - change your email addresses & VUdirectory listing"</p></li>
<li><p>Enter your VUNetID on the first page.</p></li>
<li><p>Enter your ePassword on the second.</p></li>
<li><p>On the third page, scroll down a little bit until you see the section entitled "VUmail". Here's is where you can create another alias for yourself, such <a href="mailto:firstname.lastname@vanderbilt.edu">firstname.lastname@vanderbilt.edu</a>. </p></li>
<li><p>Click save changes at the bottom of the page.</p></li>
</ol>
