Notice: Changes to Microsoft OneDrive Storage for PolyU Alumni

Microsoft has recently announced "Changes to storage offerings across Microsoft 365 Education", a policy that will affect higher education institutions worldwide. Effective from 1 February 2024, the Microsoft storage policy for OneDrive will reduce the maximum storage limit to 100GB for free users, including PolyU alumni. The OneDrive service that PolyU provided will cease entirely starting from 31 January 2025. In the meantime, the University will provide you with an online archive service of your Connect email, starting from 1 February 2024. We kindly request your attention to this matter and encourage you to manage your OneDrive storage usage and take appropriate actions to ensure a smooth transition. For details, please click here.
