Handshake After Graduation: Add a Personal Email

With all of the excitement of graduation, you may not have time to think about your Handshake account access. Adding a personal email will make it easier to login to your Handshake account even after your UW email expires.

  • Click your account icon in the upper-right corner of the Handshake screen.

  • Select Settings from the dropdown menu.

  • Click Account Access.
  • Click the Add email button and add your non-UW email. The new email appears in the list as Pending until you confirm it.
  • Handshake sends a confirmation email to the new email address. You have 7 days to confirm the address before the request expires.
