How to Migrate Your Data When You Leave SOU

Authors list

Southern Oregon University does not retain your student and/or employee data after you leave the university. Therefore, it is important that you make arrangements for migrating your data off of SOU's systems and web services before you leave.

Warning

The Information Technology department will not be able to help you recover your data after we shut down your network account, but we are happy to help you migrate your data before you leave.

This article will attempt to provide you with enough information to get started. If you require additional assistance, please contact the IT Helpdesk at 541-552-6900 or helpdesk@sou.edu. If you are an employee, you should also contact your Computing Coordinator to schedule an off-boarding appointment where we can discuss all of your data needs prior to leaving.
