Faculty/Staff Email
Faculty/Staff E-mail & Calendar
RIT provides an email address and account for all students, faculty, and staff. This email account is created when you receive an RIT Computer Account. Your RIT Computer Account has at least one email address associated with it. If you set up personalized (students/faculty/staff) and/or named-based addresses (faculty/staff only), these additional addresses merely point to your RIT Computer Account. You can also make your @rit.edu forward to a different e-mail system, if you choose.
RITmail
All faculty and staff are automatically subscribed to RITmail, the RIT Communication Center. To customize your subscriptions, please visit https://ritmail.rit.edu.

You also must agree to only use your Google account for RIT business purposes, follow RIT code of Conduct for Computer Use and RIT Network Acceptable Use Guidelines, and agree to the Google Apps for Schools Terms and Agreement.
