Any benefits-eligible employee retiring from WVU will automatically receive access to a retiree email account with an @retiree.wvu.edu address. This includes employees at the Health Sciences Center, and the Beckley and Keyser campuses.
No. The new @retiree accounts won’t require Duo two-factor authentication. Here are some other differences:
Passwords don’t expire for two years.
You won’t have to use login.wvu.edu when you do change your password.
You can set up automatic forwarding of email to another account.
Go to the Office 365 portal at office.com and enter your @retiree.wvu.edu address and password.
Access to your employee Office 365 account is removed when you retire. The only exceptions are for Emeriti. Retirees with Emeritus status continue to have the same level of access to University systems as they had when they were employees.
If you want to request emeritus status, contact your department and/or SBA. Your department will inform Benefits Administration that you have applied.
If you know your @retiree email password, follow these instructions:
Sign in to your Office 365 account with your existing password.
Select your profile on the upper-right side, and then select View account.
Select Security & privacy > Password.
Enter your old password, set and confirm your new password, and then select Submit.
