METU Alumni and former METU staff can continue to receive e-mails sent to their METU e-mail addresses by activating the e-mail forwarding to another e-mail address they have.

Users will receive reminder e-mails 1 month before their user codes are to be terminated, informing them about the user code termination and the necessary steps for e-mail forwarding. After receiving this e-mail, they can activate e-mail forwarding with the last password they use. To activate "e-mail forwarding" service, please visit METU Portal. You can also activate forwarding via https://forward.metu.edu.tr.

After the activation of e-mail forwarding, new e-mails sent to your METU e-mail address will be automatically forwarded to the e-mail address you indicated. E-mail forwarding is not valid for already received e-mails in your inbox. If you want to archive those e-mails, please visit this link. If your METU user code has been terminated in the last 4 weeks, you can apply for backup.

If your user code had been terminated and you do not remember your password, please send a photo of your identity card (only the front side) and indicate your student number / staff ID number and the forwarding address you prefer via the IT Support Form. (allowed file types in the form are: pdf, png, jpeg, gif and maximum file upload size: 2MB ) Then, Computer Center IT Support Team will activate your e-mail forwarding service. You will receive an automatic e-mail once your e-mail forwarding is activated.

E-mail forwarding serves only the purpose to forward the e-mails sent to your METU e-mail address to another e-mail address you specify. No e-mails can be sent via your METU e-mail address.
